    We went over Thanksgiving and it was absolutely freezing! I've also been there in February when it snowed the 1st day but was t-shirt weather by the 3rd.

  • When we went Mid Oct last year I had on a thin jumper and a short leather jacket and was fine. The only day that was a little chilly was when we went to liberty as we were on ferry.

    I am going to NY tomorrow, only 1 more sleep:T:D:j

    And taking a thick, fluffy jacket with a big hood. I am hoping I will be warm enough as 4 weeks before last year I was only in a short leather jacket so dont think its going to be much much colder 4 weeks later.


    urbancookie1, whats the link to the webcam you look at please? thanks

  • Cotton traders have some lovely fleece jackets in they don't look like normal fleece jackets but more like a smart jacket in fleece material and its 2 for £20 I got a white one and a blue one they will keep me warm and then I have quite a few jumpers, tshirts need more trousers though so going shopping now for them :)

    As soon as its rains in NY you will find the place is flooded, pardon the pun, with people selling umbrellas, last trip they were going for $5 so personally I wouldnt bother packing one just buy it if you need it
    Live each day like its your last because one day you'll be right
