Mediterranean weather in March

I'll be crusising the Mediterranean in mid-March (15-22). Port of calls will be: Tunez, Villefranche, Florence, Rome and Naples. What can I expect of that travel weatherwise?

Thanks for any info.

It can be like glass or like a blender.
Plan for both.

I did a land trip in March of 2000.

It was in the 50's mostly, very cloudy and it poured rain 1 day out of 12 that I was there. I pretty much wore a sweater/sweatshirt and had a light jacket with me.

Most likely it will be chilly. Take warm clothes and be prepared for light showers. I think the best time to cruise in the Med are May, September or October.

Hello,

I like to compare the Mediterranean to Southern California - hot in the summers, but comfortable in the winters. I agree to pack for both and dress in layers. As they say, "If you don't like the weather, just wait five minutes."

Best Regards,
