This is the time of year when the temperatures are at their highest with averages of 84 degrees Fahrenheit for the high and lows of 65. Temperatures start their descent into winter towards the end of October with the cold weather taking hold around the beginning of December with highs barely reaching 42 during the day. The cold sticks around and doesn't start lifting until the end of March as the days get longer and the sun is out for longer.
