Climate
The weather in Rome during summer is uncomfortably
hot, temperatures often exceeding 95°F (35°C) at midday, and Romans
tend to close up their businesses during August to take holidays in
cooler spots. Mid-winter is mild, the average temperature in
December hovering around 55°F (13°C). The best time to travel to
Rome is in springtime, when skies are blue and the weather warm.
Rain showers are possible any time of year.
