Boston sits on the Atlantic coast with a humid continental climate tempered by the sea, giving it four clear seasons and famously changeable weather. Summers (June to August) are warm and humid, usually 26-30°C with a cooling sea breeze, while winters (December to March) are cold at around -5 to 2°C, with heavy snow and nor'easter storms that bring strong winds and deep snowfall. Autumn is renowned for New England's vivid fall foliage.
A nor'easter is a powerful coastal winter storm along the US Northeast that brings strong winds, heavy rain or snow and coastal flooding. They strike Boston mostly from November to March.
Yes, plenty. Boston averages roughly 110-120 cm of snow per season, mainly December to March, and major blizzards are not unusual.
Foliage usually peaks from early to mid-October, the ideal window for taking in New England's autumn colours.
Summers are moderately warm, typically 26-30°C thanks to the sea breeze, though humid heatwaves above 33°C do occur, especially in July.
