Climate in Tuscany: March and April are the ideal window: mild temperatures (8-18 °C), green hills and the two big dates of the calendar. May and June already bite in the middle of the day and afternoon storms are common in the Apennines. July and August are tough for daytime running; September and October bring back the best balance.
