Florence Weather

Florence enjoys a Mediterranean climate, with very high summer temperatures and bags of sunshine, while colder, wetter weather features here in the winter. Spring and autumn are somewhere in-between, both temperature-wise and in relation to the number of visitors at these times.

High season

July and August are without doubt the hottest and busiest months in Florence, with shade temperatures regularly exceeding 30°C. Rainfall during this time is at its lowest and hotel rooms are likely to be booked up well in advance. Spring and autumn can be considered more agreeable seasons, where temperatures are more comfortable.

Low season

The winter (between November and February) is the low season in Florence, when the weather is at its most unpredictable and the city at its quietest. Days are still fairly mild however, with lots of sunshine, although rainfall can also be very heavy and winds biting.
