Start spreading the news—you're leavin' today. But what kind of conditions should you expect? Regular floods of tourists head to New York City year-round, but fall and spring are by far the most temperate seasons in which to visit the “Big Apple.” In winter, be ready for temperamental northeastern weather (they don't call 'em “Noreasters” for nothing). The city is often blanketed in heavy snowfall throughout the winter months and sometimes later. Still, despite potentially grim weather, NYC's holiday hoopla makes a December visit worthwhile. The summer months in the city can be hot, humid, and unpleasant—especially when you're forced to rub elbows (at the very least) with droves of people on the street. Hotels tend to be cheaper in the summer and more expensive in the riveting, Rockette-riddled winter months. Note that accommodations in NYC are often tailored to businesspeople, and so they may have reduced weekend rates.
