Philadelphia has a humid continental climate, with four distinct seasons. Summers are hot and often humid, with temperatures that can climb above 30°C, while winters are cold, with temperatures around 0°C and occasional snowfall. Spring and fall are generally more pleasant, with temperatures between 10°C and 25°C and a lighter, more comfortable feel in the air. Rain is spread fairly evenly throughout the year, so there’s no real dry season. The best times to visit are spring, from April to June, and fall, from September to October, when the weather is at its most comfortable and the city looks its best. Summer is lively but can feel quite heavy because of the humidity, while winter is quieter and can be a good option if you don’t mind the cold and want to avoid the crowds.
