🌡 The weather here, in general
Scranton runs the full range. The warmest stretch, around July, averages a high near 83°F, while January nights average 22°F — a 61-degree spread, so a coat that works in January is useless by July and the other way round.
Genuinely hot days are uncommon — about 6 a year reach 90°F. That is precisely why they catch people out: air conditioning is far from universal in a place that only needs it a fortnight a year.
Snow is a real feature of the year: roughly 40 inches falls in an average year, mostly across January, February, March, November and December. With 107 nights a year at or below freezing, ice on the roads is a longer season than snow on the ground.
Rainfall averages about 45 inches a year, wettest in April and driest in November.
