Italy Weather - TravelPuppy.com
Summer is very hot, especially down in the south of the country. Spring and autumn are mild with fine, sunny weather. Winter in the south is much drier and warmer than in northern and central areas. Mountain regions are colder with heavy winter snowfalls.

Required clothing

Lightweight cottons and linens are worn during the summer, except in the mountains. Light to mediumweight clothes are worn in the south during winter, while warmer clothes are worn elsewhere. Alpine and Ski wear is advised for winter mountain resorts.
