Yeah I'm in SE CT(Middlesex Cty) half the year, and overall, I think we fare similarly or better than LI. Maybe GON toward Westerly, RI does worse out and out toward Newport. Overall though, LI isn't exactly a great spot for cold weather...that's what I was trying to get around. Snow is similar, but temps on the south shores of LI are def worse than SE CT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer the ups and downs and wild swings in temps during the spring and the entire evolution, 70 today low 50s tomorrow 60 this weekend then ridiculously above normal next week.

By far. The point I was trying to make was that the south shore of LI isn't exactly a desirable spot for cold air. Most if not all of New England less maybe the outer cape and islands is colder than there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
