It's time
for that
much-waited New England summer vacation weather!
by Eric H.
Here's a cliche
that's
true: "If you don't like the weather in New England, just wait a few
minutes."
The
mercurial nature of our New England weather has often prompted the
frequent emotional verbal burst of "Why aren't we living in Florida?"
but that would be missing the point.
Just
when
one gets sick of the summer heat, the summer-to-winter-in-a-second
nature of the fall, the much-too-long cold, snowy winters, and spring
that contains all the weather elements of the other three seasons, we
remind ourselves that a change in weather keeps us from getting bored.
Our
weather makes a
meteorologist's job interesting, and keeps the common folk's weather
hopes alive.
After all, we love our fall foliage, that first, crisp white snowfall,
the laundry-fresh feeling of spring in the air with everything in full
bloom, and the short-sleeve and pants joy of trips to the ocean with
the rerfreshing sea breeze as well as the mountains of New Hampshire
and Vermont in the summer.
Now,
with
summer on our doorstep we feel the wait for great weather was well
deserved. We, in New England, like to work hard and suffer a
little weather-wise for that prize of actually getting outdoors,
reconnecting with our neighbors and enjoying a region that offers some
of the most diverse, plentiful and enjoyable vaction and travel
attractions in the country. So, here we come York Beach, Cape
Cod, Mystic, the White Mountains and the beaches along South County
Rhode Island --- it's summer time and we love you, well, until it's
time in August to look forward to the crisp feeling of fall, some apple
cider and amazing fall foliage.
