Winters In Ithaca

Sunday, October 14th, 2007

If you are planning a trip to this region (Ithaca), and haven’t been warned about the winters here, then don’t worry — you will be.

In fact, winter in Ithaca is the one topic of discus­sion that is perfect for conver­sa­tion with a complete stranger: it is easy to begin, it is easy to end, and it is something everyone will agree on.

Getting to the point, winters here are cold. I haven’t experi­enced one yet, but it is the middle of October, and the temper­a­ture has started to drop. The minimum these days is around 4 degrees Celsius. For a person from Bombay, this is a good time to start preparing for that igloo you always wanted. (Of course, you can’t actually build it until the temper­a­ture falls below zero.)

I checked out the current temper­a­ture in Bombay — 27 degrees Celsius. *sigh*
