Best Times to Visit New York City

Spring (between March and May) and fall (between October and November) are the popular tourism seasons. The cultural festival or events highlights of NYC include Christmas, St. Patrick’s Day Parade, Easter Parade, New York Comic-Con, Times Square Countdown, and Tribeca Film Festival. In spring, the upper limit floats between the middle of the 40s°F and highs of the 60s°F while the lower limit floats between lows of the 30s°F and 40s°F. The fall comes and the temperature slips from the lows of 60s°F in October to the lows of the 50°F in November. Rainfall and humidity do not vary much.
To avoid inflated airfare and hotel rentals, we recommend you to do your travel reservation in advance. The good thing for travelers who are constrained with time is New York doesn’t have an extreme climate. All year round, the climate remains pleasant and comfortable. Even in peak summer, July and August, the temperature doesn’t go beyond 85°F. Further, the heat is neutralized by frequent rainfalls and sea breezes (6 to 7 miles per hour). No matter what season you choose, you will love the charming weather. Feel the cool wind caressing your hair and skin and enjoy your NYC vacation. The off-shoulder season holiday to NYC helps you get bargain airfare and hotel accommodation.
