Local Seasons:

 

As the Capitol of California, this city is bustling year-round; however, summers tend to be busier as tourists come to visit the wine country as well as other major cities within California.  The weather in Sacramento is delightful all year.  High temperatures in the summer can get into the 90’s F mid-day; however they drop to the 50’s F at night, allowing for a variety of activities to be experienced.  Winters are just right for outdoor activities during the day and enjoying a fine meal by a warm fire at night.  Spring and fall offer much of the same with relatively warm temperatures during the day and cooling off at night.  No matter what the season or what the reason for your visit, this California Capital welcomes you.
