Paris has four distinct seasons:

Winter

Temperatures normally do not remain below freezing (o degrees Celcius 32 F) for extended periods.
Prepare for rain and windy days hovering just above freezing.
It rarely snows in Paris.

Spring
March and April can be cold and rainy, or sunny with a crispness to the air. Bring rain gear.
By May, you can expect some perfect days interspersed with showers.

Summer
June, July and August can be hot, humid, or mild and balmy. Rain is always a possibility - bring rain gear and a light sweater - even in July.

Fall
Temperatures will rarely fall below freezing. Bring rain gear, but Fall is the best time of the year to enjoy crisp sun-filled days in October and early November. By mid-November you’ll want to bring along your warmest winter gear. Especially your most stylish boots!

General weather tips:

My suggestion is to prepare yourself for ‘indoor’ climate which may differ from your home country. French homeowners and innkeepers are careful and cautious when it comes to energy consumption. Heat is turned on only when required and air conditioning is still not always available in many restaurants and some hotels.

If your trip includes excursions outside of Paris, remember that there’ll be temperature drop between Paris and the countryside. For example, if you go to Normandy, you’ll find the summer evenings to be several degrees cooler - and definitely damper. If you’re headed for the Loire Valley, the climate should become more ‘douce’ or sweet (which was one of the reasons the royal court moved from Paris to the Loire (not to mention the appearance of the English in Paris during the Hundred Years War).
