Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Worcester is like a typical New England town in that it experiences the extremes of all four seasons. The winter gets freezing cold, the summer gets burning hot, and the in-betweens can be full of beautiful sites of changing leaves or budding flowers. They can also be days of abrasive winds and pouring rains. You should bring everything in your arsenal to defend against the elements, and make sure to do a lot more research into the weather if you are from an area that does not have large seasonal changes.

One particularly important piece of weather-combat machinery for Clark would be an air conditioner. The summer air in the city can get immensely humid, and the temperature can often be in the 90s. Clark won’t let you have one on campus without a doctor’s note, but if you plan to sublet or live off campus, then an air conditioner is a must have. Winters are better spent on campus, as the dorms seem to retain heat in excess. It may be freezing outside, but if you’re in a Clark residence hall, you can plan on sweating while it snows.

Winter in Worcester

The winters here are unbearable. When the first snow hits, Clark looks like a winter wonderland, but within a few days all the snow turns grey and dirty. But then again, what can you expect when its snowing in the city?

Better Button up!

I would give the weather of central Massachusetts an A. The summer days are usually around 75-92 which is good for a variety of comfortable weather. However the winters are extremely cold. I learned my lesson and had to bundle up a lot more while at school than when I go home in New Jersey. With a warm jacket, you'll be fine, especially since classes are rarely cancelled.
