It gets really cold but very beautiful and still. We make snowmen.
Spring-is AMAZING as the snow melts and trees turn green. Flowers grow, the birds sing and people laugh and play!
Summer is hot and humid. It's hard to be outside in the daytime, but everything is warm and green. People swim or go to the beach to escape the heat.
Autumn- is when the weather gets a little cold again. the leaves turn yellow, orange and gold then fall to the ground. It's fun to jump into piles of leaves. It rains a lot and the days get shorter and the nights get longer.]]> 2016-10-26 21:39:56 UTC https://padlet.com/dmavromaras/xjrg0wmeh0x4/wish/133486265 São Paulo - Brazil https://padlet.com/dmavromaras/xjrg0wmeh0x4/wish/133486886 Majority of the time Sao Paulo is nice and dry, not too hot. Winter, which spans from June to August, keeps people at times well bundled in sweaters and light coats with temperatures ranging from 55 to 75 degrees. In the spring, from September though November, the days are generally sunny. In the summer, the weather becomes increasingly hot, with a few flash downpours (evidence of tropical climate) throughout the day. Temperatures tend to range from 68 to 85 degrees (20 to 29c). The humidity makes the day feel even hotter, and most Brazilians come indoors to beat the heat or escape to the nearby beaches. In the fall, March to June, the days are most rainy and drizzly with temperatures ranging from 58 to 63 degrees F (14 to 17c).]]> 2016-10-26 21:45:35 UTC https://padlet.com/dmavromaras/xjrg0wmeh0x4/wish/133486886 Isfahan, Iran🌸Isfahan is located in the central Iran inside the plains stretching along Zayandeh Rood River. The city is located in a relatively mountainous area in the center of the Iranian Plateau and stretches from the snowy Zagros Mountains in the West to the East and North-central deserts.The temperature increases together with the decrease in the amount of rainfall. There is a breeze drifting in the city throughout the year.Spring begins in late March with the trees in full bloom, summer in late June. The city greets fall color in late September with the leaves falling off the trees and winter starts in late December. Among all the seasons and months, Isfahan is in its perfect splendor in May. It’s the month when a breeze from the sky drifts through the colorful city in possession of a pleasant weather and luring lights. Isfahan is dowered with a full sunlight and is sunny three fourth of a year. https://padlet.com/dmavromaras/xjrg0wmeh0x4/wish/133487372 2016-10-26 21:50:04 UTC https://padlet.com/dmavromaras/xjrg0wmeh0x4/wish/133487372 South Korea has four seasons  https://padlet.com/dmavromaras/xjrg0wmeh0x4/wish/133487845 2016-10-26 21:54:47 UTC https://padlet.com/dmavromaras/xjrg0wmeh0x4/wish/133487845 Philadelphia, PA https://padlet.com/dmavromaras/xjrg0wmeh0x4/wish/133495972 2016-10-26 23:21:43 UTC https://padlet.com/dmavromaras/xjrg0wmeh0x4/wish/133495972 Philadelphia, PA https://padlet.com/dmavromaras/xjrg0wmeh0x4/wish/133496648 Autumn might be the most favorite time of year. The Philadelphia Eagles and Flyers are playing....family and friends gather for traditional EAGLES tailgating parties and lots of hollering can be heard from home to home.  The weather is cool, crisp and the leaves on the trees turn into the most beautiful colors. Many neighborhoods are full of children playing outside and enjoying the cooler air. The winter comes and you can smell the fire places burning throughout the neighborhoods. We look forward to snowstorms and sledding down big hills. The city is decorated beautifully and we take tours of the Christmas lights.  Spring is around the corner and it's time for Phillies baseball! The leaves are growing back and the kids are looking forward to finishing school and going on their Jersey Shore vacations. Summer time is hot....the humidity can be suffocating. You jump in your above ground pool or head over to the huge pool in Neshaminy Park. Or you can take a quick hour drive to the Jersey Shore and jump in the ocean. Some of our favorite spots are Wildwood and Ocean City. Great memories to last a lifetime. Philadelphia and its surrounding states (NJ and DE) are great places to live and raise children. GO EAGLES. :)]]> 2016-10-26 23:29:54 UTC https://padlet.com/dmavromaras/xjrg0wmeh0x4/wish/133496648 Michigan https://padlet.com/dmavromaras/xjrg0wmeh0x4/wish/133510636 In Michigan ]]> 2016-10-27 02:03:19 UTC https://padlet.com/dmavromaras/xjrg0wmeh0x4/wish/133510636 Michigan https://padlet.com/dmavromaras/xjrg0wmeh0x4/wish/133516015 Michigan has 4 distinct seasons; Spring, summer, fall and winter. In spring, the winter snow melts, the temperatures rise, and the plants and flowers begin to bloom. Summer can be hot at times, but not like Texas. The summer weather is very enjoyable to be outside. In fall, the days become cooler and the leaves change colors.  Winters are usually cold and snowy and last from November to early March. ]]> 2016-10-27 03:02:53 UTC https://padlet.com/dmavromaras/xjrg0wmeh0x4/wish/133516015 California https://padlet.com/dmavromaras/xjrg0wmeh0x4/wish/133519579 The climate in California varies significantly from one location to another. Basically, it is semi-tropical along the southern coast with arid desert in most of the southern and eastern extremities. In the north, it is mildly temperate with colder alpine climates at the higher altitudes. In California, you can lounge on a warm sandy beach, drive up a mountain to ski on snow covered slopes or drive down into the intense heat of the desert, and you can do it all in the same day!
The temperature is pleasant the entire year in most of the coastal areas. Cools breezes from the Pacific Ocean moderate the summer heat and keep the winters very mild. Expect temperatures around the 80-90s during the summer falling to the 50-60s during the winter. ]]> 2016-10-27 03:41:29 UTC https://padlet.com/dmavromaras/xjrg0wmeh0x4/wish/133519579 Guadalajara Jalisco Mexico has a humid subtropical climate that is quite close to a tropical climate, featuring dry, warm winters and hot, wet summers. Guadalajara's climate is influenced by its high altitude and the general seasonality of precipitation patterns in western North America. Although the temperature is warm year-round, Guadalajara has very strong seasonal variation in precipitation. We experience a great deal of rain in the summer months, whereas for the rest of the year, the climate is rather arid. The extra moisture in the wet months moderates the temperatures, resulting in cooler days and nights during this period. The highest temperatures are usually reached in May averaging 91 °F, but can reach up to 102 °F just before the onset of the wet season. March tends to be the driest month and July the wettest, with an average of 10.7 in of rain, over a quarter of the annual average of about 39.4 in. During the rainy season, afternoon storms are very common and can sometimes bring hail flurries to the city, especially toward late August or September. Winters are relatively warm despite the city's altitude, with January daytime temperatures reaching about 77 °F and nighttime temperatures about 50 °F. However, the outskirts of the city (generally those close to the Primavera Forest) experience in average cooler temperatures than the city itself. There, temperatures around 32 °F can be recorded during the coldest nights. Frost may also occur during the coldest nights, but temperatures rarely fall below 32 °F in the city, making it an uncommon phenomenon. Cold fronts in winter can sometimes bring light rain to the city for several days in a row. Snowfall is extraordinarily rare, with the last recorded one occurring in December 1997, which was the first time in 116 years, since it last fell in 1881. https://padlet.com/dmavromaras/xjrg0wmeh0x4/wish/133523320 2016-10-27 04:37:16 UTC https://padlet.com/dmavromaras/xjrg0wmeh0x4/wish/133523320 https://padlet.com/dmavromaras/xjrg0wmeh0x4/wish/133523550 South Korea has four seasons. ]]> 2016-10-27 04:42:21 UTC https://padlet.com/dmavromaras/xjrg0wmeh0x4/wish/133523550 The Poconos  rajvanti https://padlet.com/dmavromaras/xjrg0wmeh0x4/wish/133612277 The Poconos is in Northeast Pennsylvania aka NEPA. Also known as the Pocono Mountains. It encompasses 4 counties including Monroe (where we were from). It was known as the honeymoon destination back in the day.

Northeast Pennsylvania has all 4 seasons. Spring blossoms, Summer's can get hot and humid (but not like Texas), and winter can be extremely cold (single digits) sometimes accompanied by beautiful snow. Don't forget the best season, in my opinion, Fall.

No wonder, Fall is the most beautiful of all the seasons. Majority of weddings occur in the Fall because who wouldn't want the fall foliage as your back drop.  The color change of the leaves. The crisp cool air.  Going on hay rides, drinking warm apple cider, picking pumpkins at a pumpkin patch while wearing a comfy sweater and boots.

Furthermore, there are a couple of ski resorts in the Poconos.  One of them is Camelback, which is the highest peak of the Pocono Mountains.  Camelback is known for skiing and Ski resorts.  Grab a hot cocoa and sit by the fire at the Camelback lodge.

However, when it doesn't snow then the Poconos gets hit with sleet/freezing rain most of the time in the winter months.  The snow will start to melt at the beginning of spring.  So if there was a blizzard, and the temperature stays below freezing then the snow will not melt until the beginning of spring.  

In the Summer Camelback turns into Camelbeach.  It provides a fun waterpark to cool off in the hot humid Pocono summer.

On occasion, in the middle of October there may be what is called Indian summer. That is when the temperatures reach the upper 80s for about a week when it's suppose to be in the 50s during that time of year.

It is also the season when the most beautiful festival- Hanami is celebrated. The Sakura trees (or the cherry blossoms) all over Japan come into bloom for between seven to ten days. People hold outdoor parties to view cherry blossoms. Hanami is like a party to celebrate a new beginning.

Summer months are June, July, and August. Summer is very hot and humid in Japan. There are also many ways of making summer more comfortable. Hanabi displays (fireworks) are held as a way to enjoy the warm summer evenings. Uchimizu (cold water) is sprinkled in gardens or on the road in front of homes to cool the ground. 
One of the biggest festival celebrated during summer is the Tanabata or star festival. One popular Tanabata custom is to write one’s wishes on a piece of paper, and hang that piece of paper on a bamboo tree, in the hope that the wishes will come true. Children enjoy games and street food. Kids are carried on shoulders so that they can touch the streamers, while young couples enjoy its romance.

Autumn months are September, October, and November. After the humid summer, it is the coolest and the most beautiful season. It is the time for regional aki matsuri (autumn festivals). Most of the autumn festivals in Japan are related to harvest and fall foliages.

Winter months are December, January, and February. In general, Japan’s winters are relatively mild and dry. It snows in Hokkaido and northern parts of Honshu too. Japan offers excellent winter snow sports and slopes for skiing. The annual Sapporo Snow Festival is the most famous winter festival in Japan.]]> 2016-10-27 22:13:04 UTC https://padlet.com/dmavromaras/xjrg0wmeh0x4/wish/133781033 Hong Kong https://padlet.com/dmavromaras/xjrg0wmeh0x4/wish/133931615 Hong Kong has four seasons.

It is the 13th-largest state of India, with an area of 36,357 sq mi. The third-largest state of India by population, it is contiguous with Uttar Pradesh to its west, Nepal to the north, the northern part of West Bengal to the east, with Jharkhand to the south. The Bihar plain is split by the river Ganges, which flows from west to east. 
 
Bihar completely lies in the Sub Tropical region of Temperate zone and its climatic type is Humid Sub Tropical. 
 
Winter: The cold weather commences early in November and comes to an end in the middle of March. The climate in the October and November is pleasant. The days are bright and warm and the sun is not too hot. As soon as the sun sets the temperature falls and the heat of the day yields place to a sharp bracing cold. The temperature in Winter all over Bihar varies from 0–10 °C. December and January are the coldest month in Bihar.
 
Summer: The hot weather sets in March and lasts until the middle of June. The highest temperature is often registered in May which is the hottest month in the state. Like the rest of the northern India, Bihar also experiences dust-storms, thunder-storms and dust-raising winds during the hot season. Dust storms having a velocity of 48–64 km/hour are most frequent in May and with second maximum in April and June. The hot winds (loo) of Bihar plains blow during April and May with an average velocity of 8–16 km/hour. This hot winds greatly affects human comfort during this season.
 
Monsoon: Soon after Mid June this the rainy season commences and continues till the end of September, the beginning of this season occurs when a storm from the Bay of Bengal passes over Bihar. The commencement of monsoon may be as early as the last week of May or as the first or second week of July. The rainy season begins in June. The rainiest months are July and August. The rains are the gifts of the south west monsoon. There are in Bihar three distinct areas where rainfall exceeds 1800 mm. Two of them lie on northern and north-western wings of the state and the third lies in the Netarhat pat. The south-west monsoon normally withdraws from Bihar in the first week of October.
 
Post-Monsoon: An important feature of the retreating monsoon season in Bihar is the invasion of tropical cyclones originating in the Bay of Bengal at about 12° N latitude. Bihar is also influenced by the typhoons originating in the south China sea. The maximum frequency of the tropical cyclones in Bihar is during September–November especially during the asterism called hathiya. These cyclones are essential for the maturing of paddy, and are required for the moistening of the soil for the cultivation of rabi crops.
