The winters will be bitterly cold-- windy, rainy (freezing drizzle), snowy and gray skies (no sun at all) for days. You'll be hearing "California dreaming " by the mamas and papas in your head. Apparently, the French ppl are not afraid of lawsuits from ppl falling down so many of the sidewalks are not shovelled though downtown/Place Charles de Gaulle are shovelled. Rue Leon Gambetta where you will see a lot of stores, bakeries and restaurants isn't well shovelled, but so many ppl walk on the sidewalks so the snow will be pushed aside. Get a good quilt. Many of the apartments have very poor insulation and the tiny electric heaters don't help much. A wool knit cap and some gloves will keep you warm (along with a scarf and real winter coat). Also, the French dept stores do not understand the concept of "long johns" so you might wanna bring some. Those thin leather jackets that French ppl wear are ok in the autumn, but not much help in the winter. The springtime is nice, however.

It will mostly be rainy. If you have luck you could see some snow but don't count on it. The sky will be mostly gray (so you will enjoy the when you see blue sky). The temperature will be between 0°C (32°F) and 20°C (68°F) most of the time around 14°C (57°F). No high wind to be expected at all (except on the beach on storm days)
