Climate chart - Chambery
The climate of Chambéry is moderately continental, with cold winters and warm summers.
The city lies at the foot of the Western Alps, in Savoy, at an altitude of 250 meters (800 feet), and a short distance from Aix-Les-Bains, where the climate is the same. The proximity of the Alps makes the climate rainy, and it also makes winter snowfalls more likely than in other French cities located in the lowlands.
The average temperature of the coldest month (January) is of 2.8 °C (37 °F), that of the warmest month (July) is of 21.4 °C (70.5 °F). Here are the average temperatures.
