Summer: Hot, Humid, and Hazy (But We Like to Pretend We're on the Beach)
Let's be honest, Boston summers can be a scorcher. Imagine yourself walking down a brick road (because, red bricks everywhere) feeling like you're trapped in a steamer basket. The humidity will have your hair frizzing faster than you can say "Dunkin' Donuts," and the sun will leave you with a tan that would make a lizard jealous. But hey, at least we have the glorious Boston Harbor to cool off in...well, maybe not literally considering it's harbor water. But hey, there's always the aquarium!
Pro tip: Always carry a water bottle (or three) and invest in a good fan. Because let's face it, central air is about as common as finding a parking spot on Newbury Street.
Tip: Don’t just glance — focus.
Winter: A Snowpocalypse or a Winter Wonderland? Nobody Knows!
Boston winters are a gamble. Sometimes, you get a winter wonderland with picture-perfect snowfall and cozy nights by the fireplace. Other times, you get a snowpocalypse that leaves the city buried under a mountain of white and makes walking your dog an Olympic-level sport (be sure to invest in some good doggy boots!). The only constant? The wind. It'll cut right through you like a shiv, so bundle up!
Pro tip: Befriend someone with a car and a shovel. You'll thank them later.
QuickTip: Break down long paragraphs into main ideas.
Spring and Fall: The Brief, Beautiful In-Betweens
Ah, spring and fall. Those fleeting moments where Boston remembers what it's like to be comfortable. Spring explodes with blooming flowers and sunshine (don't get used to it!), while fall brings crisp air, vibrant foliage that makes you want to be an Instagram influencer, and the return of everyone's favorite beverage: pumpkin spice everything.
Pro tip: Enjoy these seasons while they last. They're shorter than a politician's attention span.
Tip: Use the structure of the text to guide you.
