🌤 Weather summary and notes

🌤 WEATHER SUMMARY & NUANCES: Expect a true Roman summer with temperatures peaking at +34°C. The sun is intense, so lightweight linen or cotton clothing is essential. Crucial: Always carry a light scarf or shawl to cover shoulders and knees for church entries (Pantheon, St. Peter’s). Keep an eye out for nasoni (curved iron drinking fountains) to refill water bottles for free—the water is ice-cold and delicious!
