<p>what is the weather like in DUke??? what do people in DUke wear in different time of the year? does it ever snow in Duke?????</p>

2

<p>it does snow rarely in duke</p>

<p>you have the four seasons and it is just a bit north of the level where palm trees can grow</p>

<p>so what are peole wearing in Duke in this season of the year?? in southern Cal, we are running around with our T-shirt, jeans and slippers.</p>

<p>people at this time are probably wearing jeans and a long sleeve shirt... maybe also a sweatshirt at night</p>

<p>This week the weather has been GORGEOUS. I'm from Southern California (San Diego) and I have to say it's nicer here right now. Last night I went out in a skirt and a tank top....at 11 pm. </p>

<p>I think it's beautiful to watch the seasons change....the whole "leaves on the trees, flowers blooming, birds chirping" thing is not overrated (that is, in a location such as north carolina - michigan or upstate new york, not so much). We had a couple of days in january when we had "snow"....meaning, it stuck for about a day. Definitely nothing major, and we only hit the teens a couple of days.</p>

<p>here's a link to last month's temperatures....and note that the one cold week was spring break (i.e. no one really here). Our weather can be sporadic, but it's never too unbearable.</p>

<p>Yeah-- this week has been in the 70s. Girls wearing a lot of skirts and tshirts/long sleeved shirts. Lots of flip flops. Shorts. Today is kind of warm and a little rainy, so I'm wearing jeans and a long sleeved tshirt. I haven't needed to wear a jacket or a fleece outside (even last night when I got home at 3am) for a week or so.</p>

<p>ha ha ha. guess I'm wrong</p>

<p>looks like duke is where I'll be next year :) that is unless pton or stanford offer me more money</p>

<p>Not necessarily better year round (i mean, no one can really compare with our perpetual springtime), but I can't say it's this warm much this early in spring. It's the best weather on the east coast, in my opinion!</p>
