<p>Ouch :eek:</p>

<p>Nah, September is pretty warm throughout, especially when you get there. It's only until the end of September that it starts getting down into the 60's during the day.</p>

<p>According to the Weather Channel website, September should stay in the 70-early 80s, then quickly drop down to the 60s by the end of September. But DAMN it gets cold at nite over there!</p>

<p>Packing my sweats and coats just in case, though.</p>

5

<p>ugh I can't carry too much on an 18 hour flight but I'll get the stuff there and look like a yeti once I'm through with all the layers :D</p>

6

<p>omg thats freezing!
towards the end of the month the average lows are in the 40's?!!!
It only gets that cold in Miami for 2 days out of the year in like January!</p>

<p>BRRRRRR! (BUT FUN!)</p>

<p>ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahaha... oh man.... 29 F is cold? lol ... sorry, man. ok ill stop</p>

8

<p>haha...and those temperatures don't even take into account wind chill. It gets pretty cold pretty fast and it stays cold for a while.</p>

9

<p>NOOOOO :( Cold weather makes me cry.</p>

10

<p>argh, I never managed to get used to Fahrenheit. <em>goes to convert</em></p>

11

<p>verdict: ew.</p>

12

<p>awwww :(. Poor fahrenheit, you rejected him. I bet Celsius is hotter though! (get it? hotter, like attractive? temperature?) hahahahaha ... ... ... i'm going to go cry in the corner now</p>

13

<p>Our school actually cancelled school one day when the weather was deemed "too cold" (apparently too cold in DE is 0F.) We have also cancelled school for < 1inch of snow. Delaware: we fear mother nature.</p>

14

<p>Haha, MD is the same way.</p>

15

<p>hmm, i wonder why Florida schools never cancelled class on days when the temperature was too hot? or to humid? </p>

<p>In any case, I'll be one of those Florida and California kids who are out running around campus on the day that Princeton sees its first snowfall! Look for me; we can run around together!</p>

<p>I feel sorry for you west coasters - these Jersey winters can get rough if you're not used to them.
Get a good coat: thenorthface.com
And buy yourself some boots for the snow.</p>

<p>You really have to protect yourself in the cold. I remember waiting for a school bus one day with my little brother - and his tongue just started bleeding. Seriously, we don't get snow days off in college so hats, scarves, and gloves, people.</p>

<p>Good luck.</p>

17

<p><em>sniffle</em> my mom says all these coats are too expensive. Maybe frostbite will convince her, haha.</p>

18

<p>i got mild frostbite on my ankles :( it didn't really heal completely. was wearing cotton socks and sneakers outside after a heavy snowfall.. yeah.. im stupid.</p>

19

<p>LOL mea I never got used to Farenheit either :p</p>

<p>Maybe we should just use Kelvin - that way everything will seem reassuringly high :p</p>

<p>Anyway I just converted all those temperatures for my mom and she is officially freaking out :D</p>

<p>I've come to the conclusion that you can't buy a warm enough coat in a department store in the South (and probably Southwest); they just don't stock them. Get one made for hiking, with Thinsulate or whatever.</p>

<p>What gets to me isn't so much the Cold but the Grey. Winter is pretty, but dark. Spring is sooooooo nice when it arrives.</p>
