Travel Forum / Destinations / USA and Canada / November 2005Weather in Washington may - June
Hi, My wife Jenny and I and are are planning to arrive in Washington DC on 15 May for a couple of weeks, and then a couple of weeks touring (including NYC and maybe Boston and perhaps a couple of days down Charleston way) leaving the USA on about 15 June and were wondering about the type of weather we may expect at that time of the year - especially in the Washington area. We would appreciate any advice please Thanks and Regards Trevor and Jenny Perth Western Australia > Hi, > My wife Jenny and I and are are planning to arrive in Washington DC on 15 [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > Perth > Western Australia www.weather.com Look up Washington, select Records and Averages, select your month, and voila.

With recent warming trends, you can expect daily highs from 65 to 85 deg. F, and lows in the 50s to 60s, with no more than a a few rain showers, in Washington. That's one of the nicest periods of the year here. -- Larry > Hi, > My wife Jenny and I and are are planning to arrive in Washington DC on 15 [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > Perth > Western Australia We spent a week in DC last April (mid month) and we had 90 degree temps 4 of our 7 days!! We were not prepared for it to be that warm and only brought one pair of shorts each, thus needed to do some shopping. Check the averages as others have recommended, but be prepared a bit on the warmer and cooler side than those averages! ALSO, bring the best walking shoes you can find. There is so much to see and do in DC and it is all so close together (relatively) that you will find yourself walking all day long, many days in a row.

We were there in early April a couple years ago and nearly froze to death. It was windy and cool. My niece loaned us gloves. The cherry blossoms were pretty but it was crowded.

Nearly froze to death. We couldn't see the Capitol through the blizzard on one day. We flew out to snowy New York City:-) Cheers, Alan, Australia >>We spent a week in DC last April (mid month) and we had 90 degree temps 4 of >>our 7 days!!

SignatureBarbara Vaughan My email address is my first initial followed by my last name at libero dot it. There are some sites that give you the average temps for different cities - the best one I've seen so far (and I've only looked at 3 or 4) was askjeeves.com. It gave me more info than the other ones i've looked at. April can go from snowstorms to tropical. Make 2 lists of clothes then check weather.com, accuweather.com, etc. to find out which list you should use to pack from right before you go. Boston is usually a lot cooler than NYC. Washington tends to be muggier and warmer. Carol Editor - Lowfares.com http//:www.lowfares.com |
