The weather in Chamonix can vary greatly in any one day. Chamonix is situated in the French Alps near to Switzerland and Italy, and has distinct weather summer and winter.

In winter snowfall is frequent, and the destination is know as a winter sports location. Daytime temperatures can regularly go as low as -14C in winter at 1024m, especially as the town is in a steep valley and the sun takes a while to get above the peaks. Temperature inversions are regular as cold air gets trapped in the valley bottom.

Summer temperatures are much warmer - 28-30C is common, although cool air flows off the glaciers in the evenings, and early evening thunderstorms are regular.
