Abstract This study investigates the effect of meteorological conditions on the traffic flow and its speed in Prague, with a focus on variations in temperature and precipitation. Using data from strategic traffic detectors operated by the municipality of Prague and sensors from the Czech Hydrometeorological Institute, it explores the correlations between weather fluctuations and traffic flow parameters. The findings reveal an influence of weather on traffic flow behavior, revealing that extremes in temperature and precipitation significantly affect both traffic flow and speed. This research contributes to a deeper comprehension of the mobility of humans and goods (city logistics) within urban settings. Importantly, it underscores the necessity of integrating meteorological data into transport management and planning, particularly in the context of ongoing climate changes. © 2024 IEEE.
