One of the main reasons we all love Tuscany is the weather! Close your eyes and picture yourself on one of those lovely balmy summer evenings when the weather in Tuscany is just perfect, relaxing outside by the pool, the heady perfume of jasmine hanging in the air, glass of Chianti in hand, mesmerised by the sheer spectacle that is a Tuscan sunset.


But, can a pasty, white Brit stand the heat in the middle of a Tuscan summer? What about early and late season, does it get chilly in the evenings?

We've put together some "Tuscan Weather" information, which we think you'll find useful.



THE TUSCAN CLIMATE


In general, the climate in Tuscany is very mild with little difference between the different provinces. However, the coast and valleys are hotter in summer than the hilly areas. Usually summers in Tuscany are hot with little or no rain. Spring (April and May) and Autumn (October and November) are milder and rainier, but there are still plenty of dry, sunny days. Winter can still have some sunny days but is usually wetter and colder, especially at night. July and August are the hottest months. January is the coldest month.
