Across the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, July presents a blend of rainfall and sunshine. In the early days, around Genève and Col du Mont-Sion, moderate to heavy showers are common, with temperatures ranging from 18°C to 33°C. The rain tapers off towards Frangy and Serrières-en-Chautagne, where sunny spells alternate with cloudy periods.

As the month progresses through Yenne and Saint-Genix-sur-Guiers, the weather becomes unpredictable with patchy rain and brief thunderstorms, though moments of brightness sustain highs up to 35°C. Locations including Le Pin and La Côte-Saint-André enjoy longer sunny durations, despite sporadic showers.

Towards the end of the month, regions like Bourg-Argental and Les Sétoux experience brief overcast phases with substantial rainfall, traitorously enveloped by periods of clear sky. The weather at Montfaucon-en-Velay and Araules tends to appear calmer with lesser rain, yet sudden heatwaves bring temperatures surging into the low 30s. Le Puy-en-Velay finishes the trail under a mixture of misty mornings and mostly sunny afternoons, offering a respite from the prevalent rain.
