<p>Can you tell me about the weather in Middlebury? I understand it's in Vermont, but during the school year, is there sun, rain, snow, hail, etc. and for how long?</p>
<p>I've never been to the north-northeast, so I would like to know how it is living there.</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>Snow. Probably between November and March. Sometimes April. I was in southern Vermont in mid April in 2007... still plenty of snow on the ground. but that was an oddity... usually it's gone by April 1st.</p>
<p>August-September: warm days, cool nights (sleep with the windows open!) May have the first frost.
September-October: leaves, leaves, more leaves. Gorgeous colors! Some rain.
October-November: cool days, cold nights. Probably the first snow of the season (watch out for the "first snow" snowball fight)
December-March: Cold days (many in the teens and single digits), really cold nights. Lots of snow. There are many vacations during this time, so you can escape to somewhere warm.
April-May: mud season! Lots of rain, perhaps some snow.
June-August: green, warm-to-hot days, cool nights. blue ghost fireflies!</p>
<p>Great description Arcadia! Makes me want to go back</p>
<p>The only thing I would add to arcadia's description is that the weather can change REALLY fast. This summer was odd weather-wise, but definitely showed how random things can be--flash flooding, thunderstorms out of nowhere, on and off sunshine, etc. That's more in the warmer months though. Winter is pretty consistently just cold and snowy, with a few cold snaps when the temperature will drop below zero. I love it here (I am a Vermonter after all), but it definitely is not for the faint of heart who've never experienced a real winter.</p>
<p>^I do find the winters here have been a bit lacking in recent years, though. A couple years ago, though, it pretty much rocked. Stupid global warming, messing up our patterns...</p>
