The summers are easily the toughest time of year. Summer begins in June, but summer temperatures sometimes begin in May. This weather typically lasts until the middle of September. An average day in July would be a high of 85-90 and low in the 70s. A more ideal day would peak at 78-84 with a low between 62-68.July is the hottest month here with August as a close 2nd. The middle of August typically starts to cool down. 
Falls here are very beautiful like anywhere in the northeast. In October and November, the trees will show off their fall colors before dropping leaves. Average October nights reach into the 30s and 40s. Highs in the 60s or low 70s. Snow is possible during October and November nights, but is rare. 
Winters are usually warm here with 40o weather. Big snow events are uncommon, but do happen. The most snow is likely to come in January- February, but it can snow from November and has snowed as late as April.
