Enjoy Tucson's climate!
No season is out of the question, but most preferred
times to visit Tucson are March, April, October and November, when the temperatures are at their most pleasant (highs average
80 F/27 C in April and 84 F/29 C in October). Winter (November-March) sees an average high of 65 F/18 C and an average low
of 48 F/4 C. Summers have an average high of 103 F/37 C and an average low of 70 F/21 C. Low humidity and universal air-conditioning
help make the high temperatures more bearable. Renowned for its sunny weather, Tucson's average yearly rainfall is about 11
in/28 cm. Late July-mid August and late November-mid December, Tucson experiences its rainy season. The summer thunderstorms
are known as monsoons. Because it's set in a desert valley, annual snowfall is low in Tucson proper, although there's enough
for skiing in the mountains.
