Climate chart - Brescia
The climate of Brescia is moderately continental, with cold, damp winters and hot, muggy summers.
The city is located in Lombardy, east of Milan, and at the foot of the Pre-Alps, whose proximity increases thunderstorms in late spring and summer compared to the lower Po valley.

The average temperature of the coldest month (January) is of 2.5 °C (36.5 °F), that of the warmest month (July) is of 24.5 °C (76 °F).

Precipitation amounts to 890 millimeters (35 inches) per year.

Winter, from December to February, is cold, damp and gray. There are periods in which the temperature remains around freezing (0 °C or 32 °F) even in the daytime, especially in December and January, and the sky remains overcast for long periods.
Typically, by the second half of February, the temperature tends to increase, and highs exceed quite often 10 °C (50 °F).
Fog, which was once very common, has become rarer, and is formed only in periods with Atlantic high pressure.
The wind is usually weak or absent, except when the föhn blows, a warm, dry wind that comes down from the Alps and is able to bring clear skies and good visibility. When the föhn blows, the temperature can exceed 15 °C (59 °F) even in the middle of winter. In January 2007, it reached 20 °C (68 °F).
Snow in Brescia usually falls at least once every year, although it tends to melt soon enough. On average, around 25 centimeters (10 inches) of snow fall per year.
In January 1985, after the cold record, there was an exceptional snowfall, in which the snow reached 90 cm (35 in) in height. Two years later, in January 1987, the snow reached almost half a meter (20 in). Subsequently, snow depth reached 35 cm (13.5 in) in December 1996 and 30 cm (12 in) in January 2006, while on other occasions it reached 15 cm (6 in).
Every now and then, cold air masses from Eastern Europe can bring quite intense frosts, though the temperature rarely drops below -10 °C (14 °F). However, the temperature reached -14.5 °C (6 °F) in February 1956, -16.5 °C (2.5 °F) in January 1966, -16 °C (3 °F) in January 1979, -19.5 °C (-3 °F) in January 1985, -15 °C (5 °F) in January 1987, and -14 °C (7 °F) in February 1991 and in December 2005.

Brescia

Summer, from June to August, is hot and muggy, and generally sunny, at least in the morning. The heat is felt because of high humidity and low to no wind. However, the temperature is a little lower than in Milan.
Sometimes, an Atlantic front, able to bring cool and rainy weather, can affect this area even in summer; more often, on sunny days, thunderstorms can erupt in the afternoon or evening.
During heat waves, which are becoming increasingly more frequent, the temperature can reach or exceed 35 °C (95 °F). The temperature reached 36 °C (97 °F) in July 1983, 38.5 °C (101.5 °F) in August 2003, 37.5 °C (99.5 °F) in July 2010, 38 °C (100.5 °F) in July 2015 and in August 2017, and 36 °C (97 °F) in late June 2019.

Best Time


The best period to visit Brescia is that of spring and early summer, and in particular, from mid-April to mid-June. September, too, is a good month. However, you have to take into account some rainy days in both periods.
Summer can be hot, although some days can be acceptable, especially in June. In summer, and sometimes in May, sudden thunderstorms in the afternoon or evening must be put into account.
