Winter is cold. In periods of good weather, the sun can come out, while in the Po valley and in the lowlands of central Europe, mists and cloud layers often form at low altitude.
Sometimes there can be cold spells, in which the temperature can drop down to -20 °C (-4 °F) or even below. The coldest record is -30 °C (-22 °F) and was set in January 1985.
In winter, snowfalls are quite frequent, but are generally not abundant because the level of precipitation is low. It typically snows from November to March, however, it can occasionally snow in early May, as it did in 2009, or in late September, as it did in 2006.
In summer, temperatures are pleasant and suitable for outdoor activities, although sometimes there can be rains and thunderstorms, and it can get cold at night due to altitude.
Occasionally (but less than in the lowlands), there may be brief hot periods. There may be periods in which the temperature reaches 28/30 °C (82/86 °F), which are becoming more frequent due to global warming. The highest record is 32.4 °C (90.3 °F) and was set in July 1983.
