Ok, today begins the traditional start of travel planning season. Yes, it’s the dream time stage. You’re thinking of going to France, but maybe, because the economy has tanked, you’re thinking of going in the off season, when hotels might be a little cheaper, airfares cost less, but the weather, well, it may be good for the flowers, but…
Most folks like warm but not hot, and they’d prefer to have no rain for the whole of their vacation. But most places are going to get more rain in the off season than in the summer—Mediterranean weather is generally like that. So here’s a France weather map to look at, then you can click off to your likely vacation area to see how the average climate changes over the area of France.
Remember that there’s lots more to do inside during the rain in a city like Paris than in the countryside, when rainy days drastically reduces what you can see and do.
Happy travel planning. Now, get to work!
