Usually it happen, that before leaving for holidays, to wonder what will be the weather when you get to your destination. Everybody would like to have sunny days with temperate climate in order to walk and visit all the artistic and cultural beauty that are in Tuscany or in the Valdelsa territory. To help our guests to choose the best period for their holidays, at Piè di Costa, we have decided to record the weather every day noted on our website the temperature and the weather with detailed icons. This service, which works from April 2004, provides the opportunity for our guests, not knowing what is the weather during their holidays, but to get an idea of what to expect. Even if it is fairly easy to guess what the weather will be in summer, is not easy as well, in spring during the months of March, April and May or in autumn in September, October and November. Maybe not everyone knows that Tuscany, sheltered by mountains of Appennino to the north, offers a mild climate with pleasant temperatures throughout all the year. In winter, between December and early February, the daytime temperature hardly falls below the 5 / 6 degrees Celsius, while in spring and autumn you can have an average temperature above 15 degrees, ideal for walking outdoors or to visit the art cities and small towns of Valdelsa. For that reason before leaving for your vacation in Tuscany or to get an idea on what to put in your suitcase, do not forget to check out the page dedicated to weather on the official website of Piè di Costa.
