Reply to comment by Creative_Practice710 in Should I visit Boston in February? by Creative_Practice710

It’s the coldest, windiest and iciest month with little daylight and everyone is fucking miserable. The snow is like 40% trash and dirt and the city looks hideous.

There are times in February when it’s just too inhospitable outside - it literally hurts your face. People would rather take an Uber rather than walk 10 minutes. You also have a good chance of being snowed in on some days.

If you’re not acclimated to this kind of climate, I wouldn’t do it. You would spend more money on a good jacket and boots than you would plane tickets.

Please come back in the summer or next autumn. It’s absolutely beautiful, shit is hopping, streets are clean and people are in good spirits. Also, we love the Irish and you’ll be treated well.

The people who are saying this (you're not the only one) seem to have forgotten about January, which is colder, windier, and darker. The days start getting longer rather quickly during February. Yes, it can still be cold and snowy, but it is warmer than January.
