Question Hi,
I am getting married on March 15, 2008 in Newburgh, NY. I was wondering if you could tell me what type of weather to expect for this time of year. We are obviously hoping for no snow and decent temperatures. Thanks so much.
Answer Michelle,
March is the "anything goes" month of weather, with everything from cold and blizzards to early season heat waves. It is a little too early to pinpoint the weather for the 15th. You probably should check back with me in about 5 or 6 days.
