🇺🇸 New York City vs 🇺🇸 Yonkers

Humid continental — hot summers, cold winters, year-round precipitation

New York City has four distinct seasons. Fall is the sweet spot: mild temps, low humidity, and the city at peak energy. Summers are hot and muggy; winters bring snow and bitter wind chill, especially near the waterfront.

Yonkers on the Hudson River just north of New York City is Westchester's largest city. The Hudson provides consistent river breezes and moderating influence while the Palisades cliffs of New Jersey across the river create interesting wind patterns. The city has experienced rapid development and has significant urban heat island effects.
