The New Orleans climate tends to be hot and humid for most of the year, with rain falling throughout the year. The best time to travel to New Orleans is between February and April, when the heat and humidity drops; this cooler period also coincides with the city's two most spectacular events, Mardi Gras and Jazz Fest. The oppressive heat and stickiness make the summer months uncomfortable and many locals head out of town to the 'redneck Riviera', along the gulf coast of Mississippi. June marks the start of hurricane season, which lasts through September. The temperatures in September and October are more pleasant, while mid-winter days can be chilly and wet.
