Let’s start with Agrigento’s climate, which is Mediterranean, characterized by mild and fairly rainy winters and hot, sunny summers. The city is located about 3 km from the southern Sicilian coast and is situated on a hill at 300 meters altitude.
Winter, which starts in December and ends in February, is quite mild and features sunny periods alternating with quite rainy ones. Additionally, it rarely gets very cold, although during cold air incursions, the minimum temperature can occasionally drop to 0°C. Snow in Agrigento is very rare, and somewhat less rare in the cities of the province situated further north and at slightly higher altitudes, such as Racalmuto and Canicattė. Nonetheless, it can occasionally snow even here, as it did in December 2014 when the Valley of the Temples was covered in snow.
Summer, which starts in June and ends in August, is hot and quite sunny with very rare rainfall. Temperatures are very high and can become even hotter during invasions of warm air from Africa. In such cases, temperatures can reach and even exceed 40°C, as happened in 2000 when temperatures reached 42.4°C in July and 43.5°C in August.
