Climate chart - Rovigo
The climate of Rovigo is moderately continental, with cold, damp winters and hot, muggy summers. The climate is similar to that of Ferrara, humid and foggy in winter, sultry in summer. The wind is generally weak or absent, although sometimes the bora, the cold wind from the north-east, can blow.
The city is located in southern Veneto, about 40 km (25 mi) from the Adriatic coast. A couple of kilometers north of the city flows the Adige. About 10 km (6 mi) to the south flows the Po, which then widens into the delta towards the coast.

Rovigo

Winter, from December to February, is cold, damp and gray. There are periods in which temperatures remain around freezing even during the day, especially in December and January. Besides, the sky remains overcast for long periods.
Typically, by the second half of February, the temperature tends to increase, and highs exceed quite often 10 °C (50 °F).
Fog, which was once very common, has become rarer, and is formed only in periods with Atlantic high pressure.
Snow in Veneto is rarer than in Lombardy and Emilia-Romagna, however, in Rovigo it is a little more abundant than in the other lowland cities of Veneto, which are more exposed to the sirocco and the dry bora wind that comes from Eastern Europe. On average, around 20 cm (8 in) of snow fall per year (while in Padua, Venice and Verona, the average is about 10 cm or 4 in). In January 1985, the snow reached 70 cm (27.5 in) in height.
Every now and then, cold air masses from Eastern Europe can bring quite intense frosts, though the temperature rarely drops below -10 °C (14 °F). However, the temperature reached -14 °C (7 °F) in February 1956 and -19 °C (-2 °F) in January 1985 (record).

Summer, from June to August, is hot and muggy, and generally sunny. The heat is felt because of high humidity, although a bit of breeze comes from the sea in the afternoon.
Sometimes, an Atlantic front, able to bring cool and rainy weather, can affect this area even in summer; more often, on sunny days, thunderstorms can erupt in the afternoon or evening.
During heat waves, which are becoming increasingly more frequent, the temperature can reach or exceed 37/38 °C (98/100 °F).

Best Time


The best period to visit Rovigo is that of spring and early summer, and in particular, from mid-April to mid-June. September, too, is a good month. However, you have to take into account some rainy days in both periods.
Summer can be hot, although some days can be acceptable, especially in June. In summer, and sometimes in May, sudden thunderstorms in the afternoon or evening must be put into account.
