Temporate

During the summer Boston is beautiful and the weather is accommodating, however, during the winter it is freezing with no sun and tons of rain.

Winter Is Brutal

Expect a large amount of rain during your first months, as you should with any New England school. The cold can be nice when it yields snow, but there will no doubt be times when you come to envy your friends in southern and/or western schools. There will most likely be some days so cold you feel restricted to your dorm. Despite the large amount of snow that Boston can get, classes are rarely canceled, so don't anticipate any snow days but rather an occasional canceled class given the right timing.

Northeastern...

We're in Boston so it's cold from November through about March. As long as you're okay with wearing a winter coat to a party and walking to and from class with some snow on the ground, you'll be fine. When the weather is nice, everyone is outside playing frisbee, lounging, studying, walking, etc. The weather definitely isn't my favorite part about NU, but it's not horrible.
