DC WEATHER SUMMARY

PERSONALLY, MY FRESHMAN CLASS' MOVE-IN WEEK HAD BOTH A MINOR HURRICANE AND A MINOR EARTHQUAKE, SO WE STARTED OFF ON A HORRIBLE NOTE. DURING THE YEAR IT RAINS VERY OFTEN, IT IS VERY HUMID IN THE SUMMER, GETS COLD EARLY, DC IS A BEAUTIFUL PLACE BUT THE WEATHER IS NOT CONSISTENT AND HIGHLY VARIABLE, BRING RAIN BOOTS! DON'T THINK BECAUSE DC IS KIND OF IN THE SOUTH THAT IT WON'T SNOW, BECAUSE IT USU WILL

Not So Bad

Depends on what you're used to. Hot and humid in the summer, pleasant in the spring and fall. Winter... it doesn't snow too much, but it can get cold and unpleasant. Really, not terrible. Definitely manageable.

Hot in the Summer

Since this is Georgetown University in Qatar it can get quite hot during the beginning of the fall semester, but there is a lot of air conditioning indoors to make up for it. In addition, there are shuttle busses that stop by the University every 5 minutes and transport us anywhere we need to go around campus!
