Chuyer has hot weather in the summer which is why many locals stay indoors between lunch and around 3 o'clock when the weather is very hot. And there are usually 2 or 3 thunder storms in the summer bringing rain much to the locals relief. And in the winter it can snow heavily but is usually a few centimeters or inches.
