Field notes
Mediterranean (Southern Italy) — meaningfully warmer and drier than the northern Italian peers. Winter (December–February, 9–10°C average) is mild and rainy. Summer (June–August, 23–26°C average, peaks above 35°C) is hot dry but moderated by the sea breeze. Sea-water temperatures stay swimmable May–October. The structural climate risk is the volcanic geology — Vesuvius is dormant but still active.
