A particularly enticing time to visit Moldova is during October's wine festival, despite the fact that spring and summer are best for city strolling and hiking in remote areas. May through August can also be enjoyable, though you run the chance of a snow flurry or two and low temperatures early in the season. Winters are rather moderate, particularly near the coastline, but again, in the changeable mountains be equipped for almost any environment.
Siberian drafts are capable of making Moldova a bit of an icebox for the duration of the winter; nevertheless, the spring thaw is prompt and successful. May to October averages around 20°C (68°F) days with an average high of 27°C (81°F) in July. Rainfall drops roughly in the spring and autumn and while winter has additional wet days, it falls somewhat heavier in summer.
