In Winter, rainfall is very frequent, but it hardly ever snows and frost is rare as well, as the temperature almost never drop below 0 °C. In Summer, the temperatures rise, and the warmest months of the year are June, July and August: temperatures range from 20 °C to 35 °C. September, October, April and May are intermediate, with periods of atmospheric instability: quite frequently foggy mornings are replaced by sunny afternoons, or rain showers alternate with periods of bright sunshine. You are therefore advised to bring some warm clothes for the colder days.</div> <bR> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
