The capital city of Italy is a year-round city break destination for British travellers. We've looked at the most up-to-date weather data for Rome, covering the last 12 years up to 2022, plus we've asked our team of travel bloggers for their first-hand experiences in order to answer the most frequently asked questions about Rome weather in December.
What's the temperature like in Rome during December?
The temperature is extremely stable in December with average highs of 13℃ and lows just 4℃ lower at 9℃. The UV index will be moderate at this time of year, so not something to worry about for the average person. However, if you're going to be outside for long periods it's worth wearing a broad spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen and UV-blocking sunglasses. Remember that bright surfaces, such as water and sand increase UV exposure.
Does it rain in Rome during December?
On average, there will be 13 rainy days during the month, amounting to 37.4mm in total. That's much drier than we see in England during August, and therefore not something to be concerned about. There's a small chance that you'll catch a thunderstorm during your trip.
