Spring with Locust trees in flower This area of Le Marche has a relatively mild climate compared to Tuscany or Umbria. July is, in our experience, the hottest and driest month; but even then temperatures rarely rise above 35 degrees celsius. We generally get a couple of weeks snow in winter. At higher levels, of course, on the ski runs there is generally snow from January to March.
Winter starts around mid-November. Even after that time there can be weeks when the temperature climbs above 25 degrees celsius in the sunshine. Just the time for a winter break. The flights cost very little. Check out the forecast and you could find yourself sunbathing in the middle of winter! Of course as soon as the sun goes down you need to wrap up, get that log fire burning and open a bottle of something warming! Summer
Autumn colours The nearest large towns for checking the forecast are Macerata (which tends to be a few degrees hotter) and Ascoli Piceno. The most reliable forecast we have found to be from Assam. It is in Italian but the symbols are self-explanatory. It gives a four day forecast.
The Il meteo website gives a 15 day forecast. This can be inaccurate but does at least give an idea of the general trend. The site is in Italian but the symbols are self-explanatory. Press the button 'Giornaliero' for the next seven days forecast or '15gg' for the following 15 days. 'Grafici' will then give you a graphical overview. Midwinter
