That's when I went in 2004. It isn't the best time but I enjoyed it as it was getting a bit cold and I always saw Poland as more of a cold country. It's the thrill of being there for the first time. That applies to any new place :)

September is moderately warm still i went walking with no coat and wore sleeveless tops whilst i was there during September ;)
December is how can i put it rather colder ... if you want to experience a winter then yes go by all means but pack some thermals lolz when i experienced the winter it was minus 12 during the day and colder at night and plenty of SNOW ;)

But enjoy the experience either way!

Weather is what it is. There is no bad weather, just bad clothes. Dress for the season and you'll be fine. But if weather is a deciding factor for you, come in September when it can still be "nice". December will be cold. So what?

First half of September is usually still warm like August. Then around 20th you have to turn on heating at night. In December it's dark 16 hours a day :|

I hope you enjoy sitting in pubs all day because that is what is on the menu in December. There might be snow then, but most likely it will be dirty slush. Our mood goes down but it will be interesting when you later post how dreary Poland is.

It will be an expensive mistake given you have a choice to come in September.

Happy belated Cinco de Mayo, btw. Bet you didn't know that the holiday was established after the national tragedy some time ago. The Mexicans, being true lovers of Hellman's mayonaise, were so distraught after the sinking of a whole freighter of mayonaise heading for Mexico on the 5th of May that they established this holiday. I bet you learned something different in school, but now you know the real story. :)

If this year's winter will be anything like last you might be staying there longer than planned!! Brrrr! I'm going for Aug-Oct time frame and plan on getting out of there before the colds arrive...I'm just too much used to wearing shorts all year around.

It's a joke Vivi, but now you can amuse your friends. But seriously, September is a much better time to visit Poland. There is a good chance of pleasant weather which means you can actually see something without rushing between indoor events. Either way, you'll have a good time.
