Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Unpredictable is the best way to describe the weather conditions here. While the normal weather activities include hot, humid summers and mild winters with hardly any transition, Mother Nature likes to mix things up when you least expect it. There can be severe blizzards in winter or cold torrential downpours during summer. It is best to be prepared for all temperatures as the weather is never set.

Most students don’t mind the weather much as winter tends to be mild. It makes it much easier to get to class when the sidewalks are clear of slush and snow. The spring months in Newark are gorgeous. Students can be found outdoors all over the campus enjoying the warm weather. Sunbathing doubles for study time on particularly nice days. While the weather can fluctuate drastically from day to day, there are some days when the weather is perfect—days you will be glad you were here to enjoy.

Bipolar

Delaware is a very bipolar place when it comes to weather. One day in the winter it will be 30 outside, and then next it can be 60. It doesn't rain TOO often, but it'll snow in the winter occasionally.

RAIN!

Generally the weather is pretty nice however there are periods when it rains for a full week. Rain boots, rain jackets, umbrellas and warm clothes are absolutely necessary!
