What should we expect from the weather in Switzerland this weekend?
Published 09/18/2025
SailGP heads to a new venue this weekend as the Rolex Switzerland Sail Grand Prix takes place on Lake Geneva.
But after thunderstorms and high winds in Saint-Tropez last week, what can we expect from Geneva?
Racing begins at 3.30pm CET on Saturday and Sunday, and warm and dry conditions are expected. Temperatures on Saturday are predicted to be 82f (27℃) with 57% humidity and just a 5% chance of precipitation.
A SSW 6 mph wind could gust up to 15 mph, so SailGP will likely utilize the 24m medium wings across the fleet.
On Sunday, it’s a slightly different story with cloudy conditions and light rain forecast in Geneva. It will still be warm, around 72f (22℃), but racegoers and teams should expect light rain, with humidity reaching 77%.
The wind is unlikely to pick up with a SW 5mph wind gusting 14 mph.
