Climate chart - Leonessa

The climate of Leonessa is moderately continental, with cold winters and warm summers.
The town is located in the extreme north of the Lazio region, in the province of Rieti, at an altitude of 965 meters (3,165 feet), north of Mount Terminillo, and close to the ski slopes of Campo Stella. The Leonessa plateau continues north, in Umbria, where the town of Monteleone di Spoleto is located.
About 25 km (15.5 mi) to the north-east we find Amatrice, which has a similar climate although less rainy, in fact, about 900 mm (35 inches) of rain or snow falls per year instead of 1,400 mm (55 in).
Here are the average temperatures of Mount Terminillo. The weather station is located at 1,875 meters (6,152 feet), although the summit is at 2,217 meters (7,274 ft).
