The climate of Turin (Italy)
Turin is the second largest city in north Italy and the capital of
both the Piedmont region and the Turin province. Turin is surrounded
by the Alps and the Monferato hills. Four important rivers flow
through the city: the Po, the Dora Riparia, the Stura di Lanzo and the
Sangone. Several different architectural styles can be found in the
city: Roman, Baroque and Renaissance. The Turin Shroud has become
quite famous. The car industry is very important in Turin; Fiat has
its headquarters here. The climate of Turin is much different from
that in other places in Italy. Because Turin is situated in the
interior in the hills the climate is more continental. This means both
colder summers and winters. Especially in the hills surrounding Turin
temperatures are much lower during the summer than in other places in
Italy. During the winter fog may occur.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression
of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain
period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather,
extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate
information for each month of the year:
