In 2020, Météo-France published a typology of the climates of metropolitan France in which the commune is exposed to a mountain climate or mountain-outskirts climate and is in the Provence climatic region, Languedoc-Roussillon, characterized by low rainfall in summer, lots of sunshine (2,600 hours/year), a hot summer (21.5°C), very dry air in summer, dry in all seasons, strong winds (40 to 50% wind frequency > 5 m/s), and little fog.
Between 1971–2000, the average annual temperature was 12.5°C, with an annual thermal range of 17.6°C. The average annual cumulative precipitation is 988 mm, with 7 days of precipitation in January and 4.4 days in July. Between 1991–2020, the average annual temperature observed at the nearest Météo-France meteorological station, “Mirabel Sa”, in the commune of Mirabel, 5 km as the crow flies, is 13.4°C and the average annual cumulative precipitation was 998.1 mm. The municipality's climate parameters estimated for 2050 according to different greenhouse gas emission scenarios can be consulted on a dedicated site published by Météo-France in November 2022.
