But we had a snow day in April. So in Endicott, New York we have had from below freezing to overly hot in the span of two and one half months. I don't understand how we have such a difference temperatures when we are at the latitude (give or take) as cities like Seattle and London, where it is usually mild all year around.

Next time when you are complaining about the weather in New York, just wonder what things would be like if we were just 300 miles to the west.
