It's also about forty minutes to Chesapeake Bay with its spectacular boating and fishing recreation. There are four distinct seasons each year. Spring is long and glorious, with a wealth of flowers including azaleas, dogwoods, and all the spring bulbs showing off their finery Summer can be hot. June, July, and part of August frequently produce temperatures in the nineties. St. Alban's is fully air conditioned, however, as are most homes and businesses in the community.
Autumn is another glorious time of the year.
It usually stretches all the way to December as the hardwood trees slowly change from greens to yellows, reds, and crimsons. Winter is relatively mild, especially for people coming here from northern climates. In most years snowfall and ice are minor, and frost rarely goes more than an inch or two into the ground.
