Weather & Climate In Hall in Tirol
With a continental subarctic climate (Köppen classification Dfc), Hall in Tirol experiences four separate seasons—cold and snowy winters, and moderate and wet summers. Rising 574 meters above sea level, the town sits in the Inn valley and is surrounded by towering mountains that affect the local temperature. The mountains block some of the cold air masses from the north and east, therefore producing a rather moderate microclimate in the valley. But they also stop some of the warm air masses from the south and west, which lowers temperatures and increases precipitation unlike in other areas of Tyrol.
Hall in Tirol’s average temperature is 7.8°C; its average high is 13.5°C and its average low is 2.1°C. With an average temperature of 17.8°C, July is the warmest month; January comes in at -2.2°C. From as high as 36°C in summer to as low as -20°C in winter, the temperature swings greatly all year round. Particularly in spring and autumn, when the diurnal range may approach 15°C or more, the temperature can also vary rather significantly within a day.
With an average of 113 wet days and 63 snowy days year, Hall in Tirol gets 699 millimeters of normal precipitation. With an average of 125 mm of precipitation, August is the wettest month; December comes in driest with an average of 38 mm of precipitation. Though it is equally distributed all year round, summer’s thunderstorms and heavy showers tend to provide more frequent and strong precipitation. The most of the snow falls in winter, when the town is usually blanketed in a thick covering.
