SO HEY, quick question: how early in the year might snow reasonably start falling up around the Cape Cod-y region? I know that the snowfall round those parts is a lighter than the rest of Massachusetts (I think), but when does it begiiiin

Not until January or February. The Cape tends to get rain and wind more than snow.

There's always the dreaded nor'easter, if you're looking for apocalyptic weather! Those hit the Cape fairly often, anytime during the cold part of the year.

It's more the "horribly windy with freezing rain" type of winter weather along the Cape than the "lovely fluffy snow hooray" type, really. I assume this is because of the general and pervasive dampness of coastal climates but IANAMeteorologist.

As for time of year at which wintery stuff begins - iirc the warmer oceanic temps left over from the summer usually makes for mild autumns along the Cape, so I'd assume that winter's onset would similarly be somewhat later as well? Maybe?

I live on the opposite coast and so am useless to you, but I was wondering where the picture was taken? It's lovely.

DAMN YOU, EAST COASTER. And the picture was at a drive in somewhere in Oregon (possibly Dallas.) It was awesome *_*

*confused* No, no, West Coast! IS CAPE COD ON THE WEST COAST AND I JUST HAVE MASSIVE GEOGRAPHY FAIL? *googles frantically*
