The climate in New England is considered to be temperate. The seasons are very distinct although sometimes unpredictable. Spring is too short and can start from April to May. The temperature can be cool or mild and it can be rainy or dry. Summer usually moves in by mid to late June. Temperatures can vary from warm and dry, to hot, to hot and very humid. Sometimes we have a lot of rain and sometimes we have drought conditions.
Fall rolls around in late September and early October and that's when New England is in its glory. The color begins to appear in the North in September and worked its way down with Columbus Day Weekend supposedly marking the peak in mid October. However, the color patterns and intensity are affected by the weather. The brilliancy of the fall color depends on the amount of rain during the summer and fall, and cool nights. Even a trip on the interstate can be awe-inspiring with the brilliant color display of the roadside vegetation. People travel from all over the country (and world) to become New England leaf-peepers for just a few days. Apples, cider and pumpkins at roadside stands add to the wonderful atmosphere. An early fall is sometimes broken by a short return of summer warmth in late October or early November. We call that brief interlude Indian Summer.
Snow comes in late November in the North country attracting skiers from all over. It holds off until at least mid to late December in the more southerly parts of New England. January through March is cold and people hurry from building to building, car to building, etc. We have blizzards some years and no snow during other years. Unpredictable. We often have a few spring-like days in January or early February. That interlude is called the January Thaw.
Of course, all of the above can change at a moment's notice giving life to the old saying, "If you don't like the weather in New England, wait five minutes." The weather in the last few years has broken all the rules. We can have snow in April and cold nights in August. Also, the weather patterns are different in sub-regions of New England so there are really no hard and fast rules.
Moderate, hot summers and long, cold winters.
