Weather in Patzcuaro is like a mild San Francisco...
Patzcuaro has a warm, spring-like climate, and the altitude means it never
gets too hot or too cold during the day. Day temperatures rarely drop
below 65 degrees Fahrenheit during the winter or below 75 degrees
Fahrenheit in spring and summer. That said, mornings and nights can be
cold October through April, so bring some warm clothing layers. The rainy
season is late June through September
