Best time to visit Toulouse
France · 20-year averages
September is the best month in Toulouse, scoring 84 out of 100, with January the weakest at 42. The 42-point spread means timing is worth planning around without being decisive. 4 of the twelve months sit within ten points of the best, so there is more than one right answer.
August is the warmest month at 30.1 °C and January the coolest at 9.9 °C — a 20.2 °C spread across the year. Around 46 days a year top 30 °C, concentrated in August and the months either side. 25 nights a year dip below freezing.
There is a real wet season here. January, March, April, May and November carry the rain — up to 14 wet days in a month — while February, July, August and September drop as low as 9. That 5-day gap is the biggest single difference between a good month and a bad one in Toulouse, and it moves further than the temperature does.
Daylight runs from 9 hours in winter to 15.4 in summer, enough to notice on a sightseeing itinerary.
The three strongest months are September, June, October. The one to think twice about is January. Each month below has its own page with rainfall reliability, extremes, daylight and crowd levels.
