What you gain in February
- ↑Lowest rainfall of the year: just 6mm across February — essentially zero rain risk for any planned outdoor activity
- ↑23°C afternoons ideal for Chapultepec Park, the Roma–Condesa walking circuit, and outdoor markets without the weight of summer humidity
- ↑Prices unchanged from January: the best month to book the most sought-after restaurants and hotels before March spring break demand arrives
What you sacrifice
- ↓6°C nights still cold: evenings outdoors require layers, and the terrace restaurant scene is limited until March warms things up
- ↓Dry wind from the valley can make the air uncomfortably dusty on some days, particularly around the lake-bed districts
- ↓No major events of note — February is one of the quietest cultural months before the spring festival calendar kicks in
