Just wondering if some of our Italian members can give me a realistic comment. Going to Italy in August / Sept - mainly Southern Italy in Sept. Exactly how hot does it get at that time of year ? A lot of people have said "hot" - but exactly what does that mean ?
Remember - I'm Australian - we judge heat mainly by humidity. For example it is "hot" here on the coast at the moment at 29 degrees with high humidity - but was pleasant a week ago at 35 degrees (with low humidity).

hi...

August/September is a good period to visit southern Italy, normally is hot, but not like in Australia o Florida, humidity is low, the temperature could be around 25/27 degrees near Rome and Naples, higher (29) in Sicily and Sardegna... is also a period that the rain is not important...

The best time to visit Italy is, however, between April and June, when the climate and temperatures are mild all around, this time in the countryside in bloom adds fantastic scenarios, so that you can visit the city and enjoy the mild climate the same time.

i live in northern Italy, if you think to visit it, please tell me when... ;-)

What he said! I think you'll find the temperature and humidity in the South comfortable, I'd avoid the lowland areas in the north during the summer though, they get horrendously humid and mozzies WILL eat you alive.
