Hi Sarah.
Don't worry about the weather! There are two main reason why I fall in love especialy with Diptera:
1. It exsist as wanderfull source of information as Diptera.info
2. Odonata, for example, is only 3-4 month/year available group. But Diptera is "all weather aviation". Even in cold Moscow in the end of november it is still possible to find some. In compare with Moscow your winter perspectives aroun Roma looks "tropical-rich". So, good hutn to you!
