Hi All,
I plan to be in Prague from June 4-7 and see rain in the forecast :(. Do we need to carry umbrellas. Does it rain all day?
Thanks

Do you have waterproof rain jackets with hoods? I am one who never travels to Europe without a rain jacket.

same answers as in your Berlin question, really.
The heat dome has moved away and some Atlantic fronts are passing through. They should likely have fizzled out a bit by central Europe... stick your finger out the window when you get up and if it is wet wear some water layers

I also agree that a rain jacket with a hood is the way to go. Keeps your hands free, and it's easier to navigate sidewalks without an umbrella.

Because I try to not bring anything i wont use, I bought a bunch of these about 20 years ago. I bring one on each trip. About the size of a sandwich bag and 3 ounces. I've burned through 3 of them in 20 years. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EPtOVikWkAEnxs0.jpg. My backup is i buy an umbrella and leave it in the room when I checkout.

Friday indicates possible rain.. usually doesn't last long. Czechia is currently in a drought. If needed, just pick up a cheap umbrella at Tiger, Primark or the corner Vietnemese shop

I always travel with a waterproof rain jacket with a hood, no matter what time of year it is. It can rain any time.
