Best time to visit Padua

October is the best month in Padua, scoring 81 out of 100, with December the weakest at 47. The 34-point spread means timing is worth planning around without being decisive. 5 of the twelve months sit within ten points of the best, so there is more than one right answer.

July is the warmest month at 31.2 °C and January the coolest at 7.4 °C — a 23.8 °C spread across the year. Around 54 days a year top 30 °C, concentrated in July and the months either side. 28 nights a year dip below freezing.

There is a real wet season here. May to August carry the rain — up to 13 wet days in a month — while January, February, March and December drop as low as 7. That 6-day gap is the biggest single difference between a good month and a bad one in Padua, and it moves further than the temperature does.

Daylight runs from 8.8 hours in winter to 15.6 in summer, enough to notice on a sightseeing itinerary.

The three strongest months are October, September, April. The one to think twice about is December. Each month below has its own page with rainfall reliability, extremes, daylight and crowd levels.
