It was a revelation to me yesterday when I went on to weather.com and looked at the forecast for Viterbo. The 10 day forecast includes time where we will be present - and not just on the last day! That left me tossing and turning all night as I fretted about all the little things which need to happen between now and next Tuesday. Exciting, yes. Stressful, absolutely!
August is usually the worst month for heat in Italy. We have been in Rome during August when the temperatures hit 100 and are routinely in the 90's and were in Bolzano when it was 104. However, the forecast for Viterbo seems quite reasonable. Sunny and in the low 80's for most days with overnight lows in the low 60's. The only real question is the level of humidity. If it is reasonably dry then it will be quite pleasant even though the apartment almost certainly has no air conditioning. Air conditioning is relatively uncommon in private homes although it is becoming more common. The thick stone walls tend to keep the temperatures cooler as well as making it difficult to vent air conditioners and condensates.
