When to go Bologna
In the summer, the weather is warm and humid and there is a relaxing and peaceful quality to this which you can’t find at any other time of the year. However, Bologna is prone to large storms with heavy rain and thunder and lightning. However there is no need to worry, as these will be the most spectacular you have ever experienced. The rain is warm, like a free flowing shower, and the lightning appears in many different colours of electric blue, neon red, and rich violet and is truly an incredible natural lighting display. The temperature still never drops below the low 20s, with a chance of temperatures above 30 degrees celcius high for the majority of the summer.
In the winter, the temperatures drop right down to below zero and there is a high chance of snow and ice in the mid winter months of January and February. There is also a large amount of fog and mist around at this time which doesn’t clear until after midday. However, this is a really eerie and atmospheric feeling and makes you feel like you are in a fairytale. This is still an incredibly beautiful time to visit Bologna, as the long shadows and unusual sunlight adds to the effect and atmosphere created by the amazing architecture.
The best thing in Bologna is that the mountains which lie to the north of the city act as a shield for the worst of the North European weather. For this reason the weather int he autumn and spring is often mild and very calm, making these also very good times to visit. This mildness allows you to stay outside for the large part of the day into the evening, as the time gets closer to the summer, which makes the city accessible and enjoyable all year round.
