New York has four distinct seasons. The summer months are hot and humid; the winter months are cold and snowy. During the summer, average temperatures range from the low 60s to the mid-80s. During winter, average temperatures range from the mid-20s to low 40s. Because snow is common in the winter, and because most people walk a lot in the city, you should pack boots to keep your feet dry.
