HELP! Leaving next Monday for Salzburg, Halstatt, Bellaggio & Paris - what type of weather to pack for?
I know that weather is NEVER dependable, but I looking for some input about what temperatures (or, God forbid, precipitation) to expect in these areas. <BR> <BR>We'll be in Salzburg/Halstatt from Sept. 13-18, in Bellaggio from 18-22, and in Paris from Sept. 23-27th. <BR> <BR>I have experienced BEAUTIFUL weather in Europe in September and October, but I've always been further south. Any information would be much appreciated!

We're going to be in France about that same time, and we're looking at a windbreaker-type jacket, a couple of sweaters, umbrella, gloves, warm sox. Tshirts and cotton turtlenecks for layering under the sweater/jacket as the weather gets chillier, or stripping down if the weather gets warmer (according to people who live in Paris, there's a warm spell right now). <BR>It will always rain in Paris if I'm there (God's little joke).

Kari, <BR>We were in Bellagio, Italy, the first week of September in 1997, and it was very warm....I would say around 80 degrees in the daytime. We wore short sleeves the whole time. Even though Bellagio is in northern Italy and near the Alps, it is my understanding that it really has more of a tropical climate. I would bring some short sleeves for Bellagio if I were you -- you can always layer more on top if it is unusually cool when you visit there. It's a beautiful town by the way, and if you'd like to see our photos of Bellagio, please visit our personal travelogue at http://www.lunadesigns.com/travels/.

Kari- Short and long sleeved shirts, a lightweight ski jacket (not a parka) or lined windbreaker, a sportscoat, and a small umbrella. It shouldn't be cold enough for a sweater but you can always buy one if it is. If you are fortunate, you will have beautiful weather all 3 places. Rain usually consists of short showers this time of year. Enjoy your trip. <BR> <BR>

Kari.....this is not a response about the weather....just a comment that you have picked four GORGEOUS , wonderful places to visit. All are extraordinary! have fun. We will be in Bellagio, and Switzerland the end of October and first week of November, and I imagine it will be a LOT colder than <BR>now.

I was in Salzburg last weekend and the weather was sunny and warm. I carried a sweater for night when it cooled down a little. People said the weather had been unusually nice. We went to Prague and Berlin also and both were exceptionally warm and sunny. I had come prepared with too many pairs of shoes and too many jackets (for cold and rain that I never experienced).I spoke with someone today in London who had just come from Denmark and said it was sunny and warm in both places, so apparently Europe is experiencing an unusually warm, sunny spell.
