Clothes for Each Season

This section provides information on appropriate clothes for each season and appropriate clothes for each month (Monthly Clothes Forecast). Monthly Clothes Forecast describes the appropriate clothes according to average high/low temperature for each month.

Appropriate Clothes for Each Season

What kind of weather does Tucson have?

Tucson has temperate winters and hot summers. The city has a higher elevation making it wetter and cooler than Phoenix. It has a desert climate that experiences two major seasons (winter and summer) and three minor seasons (monsoon, spring, and fall). Tucson's annual temperatures vary between 100 and 42 degrees Fahrenheit and rarely fall below 33 or go above 107.

Based on results from the beach/pool score, the appropriate times to visit the city for hot-weather activities are between early June to mid-July and mid-August to early October. Thus, visitors should carry appropriate clothing for various seasons. Additionally, it would be good to wear appropriate clothes to help you have an exciting experience during your visit. Hereafter, dive in to learn more about season-appropriate clothes in Tucson, Arizona.

Summer

Tucson summers are extremely hot, and visitors should take precautions to stay comfortable and cool. You should pack light clothes made from natural fibers for the summer because they allow you to keep cool by soaking sweat and letting your skin breathe. You should also carry sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat for protection against extreme heat.

You should also carry layered clothing when visiting Tucson since desert temperatures often fluctuate by 30 to 40 degrees daily. You should pack light clothes like light shirts, weightless summer dresses, and shorts to use during the day and layer them up in the evenings. Additionally, you should pack a coat of light jacket if you plan to visit the Grand Canyon.

Winter

Tucson winters aren't as cold as winters in Northern USA. Thus, visitors should skip packing boots and fur jackets when visiting the city since they won't need them. You should focus on packing clothes you can layer to keep warm in the region's mild winter climate. Usually, Tucson mornings are cold or cool at best.

However, the temperatures will rise as the day progresses, and you'll want to peel off the layered clothes to feel more comfortable. Your best bet is to go for a chic winter look with long-sleeved blouses and shirts, plus cashmere sweaters. You could add a light coat to help you through the chilly morning air.

Gentlemen can add a light jacket, stylish sweater, tennis shoes, or loafers. Add some leggings if you plan to wear a dress or short skirt since you can remove them when it starts getting warmer. You should also add a thin scarf, some warm gloves, and various boots to wear depending on the day's weather.

Spring

Often, Tucson spring is characterized by warm days and cold nights. You should wear light clothes during the day and layered clothes in the evening. Usually, men in Tucson wear polo and button-up shirts tacked into casual slacks, while women wear light pants or a sundress.

Women can pair a blouse with a breezy skirt and finish the outfit with flip-flops or sandals.

Add some warm winter sweaters, scarves, boots, cozy sweaters for a warm evening, a hat, sunscreen, and sunglasses to protect you during the day.

Fall

Tucson's fall essentials include layered clothes, sun protection, and comfortable shoes. You should emphasize on packing layered clothes since temperatures vary widely during the day. Pack a light cardigan or jacket for cooler evenings and some comfortable shoes if you plan to explore or go hiking.

You should pack some sunscreen when visiting Tucson; however, it's more important to carry some in the fall since the sun is lower in the sky. Dressing for the fall season can be difficult when visiting Tucson since temperatures remain in the low 90s throughout the month. Plan on layering your outfits for added comfort. You should pack lightweight clothing and some boots to match with a dress or jeans. Add some leggings to pair with your dress, especially since the sun can be bad for your skin.
