The Great Boston Snowmageddon of... July 5th? (Spoiler Alert: It Wasn't)
Did you wake up this morning with visions of sugarplums dancing in your head, only to be rudely interrupted by a blanket of pristine white snow? Fear not, fellow citizens of the internet, for the answer is a resounding NO.
That's right, folks. Despite your dreams of a snowball fight on the Fourth of July (admit it, you've thought about it), Boston remains stubbornly snow-free... for now, at least.
But Why Ask About Snow in July?
Ah, the age-old question. Here are a few possible culprits:
- You dreamt of a winter wonderland: We've all been there. Maybe you're planning a ski trip or reminiscing about childhood sledding adventures. Whatever the reason, snow is on your mind – and that's okay!
- You're a master of internet trickery: Trying to confuse your friends with talk of a Boston blizzard in July? We see you. Just be prepared for the inevitable "dude, it's summer" comments.
- You're a time traveler: Whoa, heavy! If you've come from a future ravaged by eternal winter, well, first of all, welcome! Second, stock up on sunscreen, because things are about to get hot (literally and metaphorically).
Important Note: If you actually witnessed snowfall in Boston today, grab your phone and get filming! That's some next-level weather anomaly right there.
So How Much Snow Did Boston Actually Get?
Drumroll please... Absolutely none. Nada. Zip. Zilch. You get the picture. Boston is currently basking in the glorious (and sometimes slightly oppressive) heat of summer.
But wait! There's more! For those who crave the sweet, sweet satisfaction of meteorological data, here's a fun fact: the average high temperature for Boston in July is a toasty 82°F. So, ditch the snow boots and dust off your swimsuit instead!
