First, despite its position facing the sea, it is far from the ocean climate. It is cold in winter, very cold. It snows every winter for several weeks, and sometimes with real storm! That said it's nothing, look back a little inland (Upstate New York, as they say), the winter lasts six months. Well yes, Canada is not far! But it is the wind, always present, that penetrate through the clothes and gives the impression of being a pile on the ice. Although
-on, summer, all reversed (spring and fall, at least this year, lasted roughly 3 1 / 2 days). One can easily reach 100 degrees (Fahrenheit, but still). Moist heat, sticky. Heat is known to be downright unbearable in July and August. Therefore the AC (air conditioning) are almost all windows (except for my room), and thoroughly in all stores, offices, subways. A prime example of wasted energy boggles the mind: it has quail inside, which means that many New Yorkers ever prevail with them a sweater, even during the worst heat, to avoid temperature differences really tiring. Myself, the office, I always wore a sweater or jacket, as I pulled out conscientiously eat or at the end of the day.

short, for the average New Yorker who lives in his windowless office or in his room without a view, the only way to know how to dress is to check the weather online. And I am able to announce, for having often tested, the short-term weather forecasts are damn reliable. Weather France did not really need my services ...
Sailing Sailing, I said everything was what I thought. When you start talking about the weather, generally, is that we have much left to say. Luckily, I soon left NYC for new adventures. First Boston on a weekend, then a road trip in the Midwest and along the Mississippi. So by this sad post that ends the epic New York. Soon other news, another culture.
