The Weather and Climate in Holy See (Vatican City State)

The Vatican has a temperate climate. It is rainy and snowy from the months of September to May. While the summers in the months of May to August are hot and dry.

Plenty of the locals leave during August because of the heat. Since the Vatican in general is built on stone, the heat reflects and creates a very uncomfortable atmosphere. If you are staying at a hotel without air-conditioning during this time of the year, your stay will be very uncomfortable.

The best time to travel to the Vatican is during the months of September and October. On these months the temperature is quite cool, and it may shower a little. It is expected that temperatures will drop at night. The autumn weather is very nice and very cool to those who like the chilly condition. If this is the type of weather you lie, then I do suggest you go during this time of the year without it being too much trouble on your travels.

Most people will not recommend the month of November; however if you are lucky, you may get good weather at the beginning of the month.

. If you would like that fine spring weather, then I suggest you visit the Vatican during the month of April. It is during this time of the year where the temperature is quite stable, unlike March.
