Sunny cloudless skies are still common and the fresh clean air is glorious. Don’t think you're going to be alone touring Rome in Autumn. Until the end of November it's still tourist season.

Rome is a top travel destination in Italy and the capital of modern Italy with many top attractions. Today’s Rome is a vibrant and lively city with reminders of its past everywhere. You will encounter ancient monuments, medieval and Renaissance buildings, fountains and great museums. There are many areas where you can see another side of Rome. There are quiet shady parks, hidden piazzas and spring water fountains among the world famous monuments and museums.
Rome's coast, which has the true Mediterranean climate, doesn't experience as large temperature swings as what Rome city does. In winter, temperatures along the coast are warmer (due to the immediate influence of the sea) than inland and in Summer, temperatures along the coast are cooler than inland. The closer one gets to the Apennines the larger still can be the temperature swing in winter.
Summer is the season of more festivals and parties in Rome. You will find Romans eating, drinking and socializing in the Piazzas and cobbled alleyways of Rome. Life is bright, vibrant and exciting, how can one not enjoy oneself in Rome in summer?! Everything culminates at "Ferragosto" (15th August) the main holiday for Italy.Spring, starting in March when the daytime temperatures are starting to rise (and nights are chilly) is a fine time to visit. March through May will bring you decent temperatures and enough sunshine to make most folks happy.
Autumn in Rome can be quite mild. It's usually only around the beginning to middle of November that we'll start digging through our winter clothes. Until the middle of October it's usually still "dry" while the end of October and November sees the beginning of winter rains and chillier temperatures. Sunny cloudless skies are still common and the fresh clean air is glorious. Don’t think you're going to be alone touring Rome in Autumn. Until the end of November it's still tourist season.
Rome in January and February can chill the bones but temperatures will rarely be sub-zero. Snow is extremely rare but rain is common and weather forecasts unpredictable at best. But many a tourist has left very happy as there always seems to be a respite where you can engage and complete your tourism duties.
