The climate of Boston is continental, with hot summers and very cold winters. The weather in Boston is, however, full of surprises, subject to rapidly changing conditions all year round: wide temperature variations can occur in the space of a couple of days, and unseasonal snowfalls have been known. In general summers are sunny, hot and humid, July temperatures averaging 82°F (28°C). Winter in Boston is extremely cold, wet, windy and snow-covered, with an average of 42 inches (108cm) of snow falling each year, mostly in storms. The loveliest season in Boston is early autumn, when the weather is clear and warm, and the countryside resplendent with gorgeous fall foliage.
