It’s spring now…  Spring started on March 21st, Spring equinox day, and all over the world there were 12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness.

The phenomenon of the changing of seasons is caused by the earth axis inclination and by the rotation of our planet around the sun.

During this path the earth keeps its rotation axis always parallel to itself and in certain periods of the year it reaches four basic points which mark the beginning and the end of each season.

What weather might we expect in Modena in April?

Minimum Temperature: 12°C Maximum Temperatur: °C Sky:Sunny or sunny and cloudy Humidity : 50%, often above 50%. It can reach 90% ! Minimum Temperature: 12°C Maximum Temperatur: °C Sky:Sunny or sunny and cloudy Humidity : 50%, often above 50%. It can reach 90% !
