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 Verona is rare, and due to local circumstances (the föhn effect given by the north-east wind that descends from the nearby Lessini mountains) is rarer than in other locations in the Veneto region (which is already a less snowy region than Lombardy, Piedmont and Emilia). On average, about 10 cm (4 in) of snow fall per year. In January 1985, when the snow reached 70 cm (27 in) in Milan and 90 cm (35 in) in Brescia, 15 cm (6 in) of snow fell in Verona, and in January 1987, 20 cm (8 in). Subsequently, snowfalls of 10-15 cm (4-6 in) occurred in February 1991 and December 2009.
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 -18.5 °C (-1.5 °F) in February 1956, -15 °C (5 °F) in January 1960, -13.5 °C (7.5 °F) in January 1963, -16.5 °C (2.5 °F) in January 1966, -12.5 °C (9.5 °F) in January 1979, -18.5 °C (-1.5 °F) in January 1985 (record equalled), -12.5 °C (9.5 °F) in February 1991, and -14 °C (7 °F) in December 2009.
Summer, from June to August, is hot and muggy, and generally sunny. The heat is felt because of high humidity and low to no wind.
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 35 °C (95 °F). The highest recorded temperature, 39 °C (102 °F) was recorded in August 2003. On other occasions, the temperature reached 38 °C (100.5 °F) in July 2007, August 2012, July 2013, and late June 2019.
On average, there are around 2,200 sunshine hours per year. The sun does not shine often from November to January, while the summer is sunny, although sometimes the sky clouds over in the afternoon or evening. Here are the average sunshine hours per day.

Best Time
The best period to visit Verona 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.
