In general the climate in Tuscany is very mild. There are little differences between the regions, though. As a rule of thumb: the coast and in the valleys, the summers are hotter than in the hilly areas, where the climate is very continental and rain falls are more regular. Usually the summers in Tuscany are without rain, and very hot, especially in the valleys. Spring (April and May) and autumn (October and November) may be rainy but, there are still dry, sunny days. In the winter there are sunny, mild days but at night it sometimes gets quite cold. July ist he hottest month with temperatures from 23°C up to 30°C. Especially in the valleys the teperatures sometimes rise up high. In the coldest month - january - it may be 7°C at the coast, and about 3,5°C to 5,5°C inland. Naturally, the temperature in the mountainious areas lower.
Tourist season:
The main season is spring, summer and autumn, especially because the landscape at that time of the year is at it's most beautiful. For seightseeing, the summer months are sometimes quite hot, and the museums and cities may be busier. For sightseeing tours the winter month could be contemplated.
