<p>Hi!
How bad does the winter get in Hamilton? I am from south-east Pennsylvania, so I do get snow and ice, but I'm not a fan. I don't like the cold all that much, but I can tolerate it. Is that a real issue if I attend Colgate?
Thank you!

<p>How bad is it? What can you tolerate?</p>
<p>Beats me, Meghan.</p>
<p>So… Why don’t you check weather.com and visit when it suits you and decide for yourself?</p>
Since you live in south-eastern Pennsylvania, you have probably already experienced single-digit temperatures, which is colder than an average winter night in Hamilton. So that may help you judge. Overall, I’d say the weather in Hamilton is suitable for the adventurous, but only truly cold during times when much of the Northeast is frigid anyway. And, if you are going to have snow, don’t you want to try the real thing?
Colgate’s weather is pretty bad in winter, and even though it’s supposed to be Spring now in April we had rain, hail and snow all the one day. Luckily, we never reached that point when Celsius and Fahrenheit meets (aka -40).
