Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Students consistently say Davis weather is extreme. From the sizzling August heat to the numbing November rain, Davis weather covers a spectrum of atmospheric activity, even getting snow every few years. Students are advised to prepare for extreme seasons and bring a wardrobe packed with everything from snow gear to bathing suits. For students with allergies, medication is also a good idea—with all the construction and agriculture, allergies tend to flare up in the spring.

Despite Davis’ tendency to have extreme summers and winters, it gets its share of the unbeatable California weather. Overall, the climate is comfortable. In a town where the sun shines an average of 267 days a year, even Southern California students shouldn’t have to worry about being depressed by the weather.

Better Than NY

Coming from NY, this is a huge improvement. Fall and spring here are just gorgeous. Its warm and sunny and it just puts you in a good mood (and makes it easier to get out of bed to go to class). The winters are pretty mild. It can get a little chilly and occasionally rains but it certaintly doesn't put a damper on my mood. Summers are amazing, but then again I like it really hot. Most people would think of them as brutal. It gets super hot during the summer. But thats not such a big deal because most people won't be on campus then. And even so- there's

nothing nicer then to bike straight from class to the awesome rec pool to get some tanning in and go for a swim.

Lots of Wind in Davis

Everything tends to be fine and dandy, but when it's windy, biking is very difficult. Biking in the rain is also not ideal.
