We were there two years ago around that time and we had only a few evenings of rain (but it rained pretty good). It was a bit cool early, but was nice by afternoon. I would take layers (shirt, sweater, and light rain/wind-breaker). Enjoy!

I just returned from Provence and the temperature and rainfall really depends where in the area you are and the time of day. It is at about the same latitude as New York State, but the area on the Cote d'Azur is more of a Mediterranean climate - warm days with cooler nights.
Check www.accuweather.com for weather statistics.
Definitely dress in layers and bring a light rain jacket. You can buy an umbrella there if it rains really hard. Take silk underwear - light but warm, also an extra pair of shoes/sandals in case your main pair get wet, just nice to switch when walking a lot.
People tend to dress up more when going out for the evening, even in the smaller towns so bring a dressier outfit to have dinner out in a restaurant.
Bon voyage!
