Weather in Burlington: plan the website around it

The nearest NOAA station with 1991-2020 climate normals, Coldwater St. School, is 11 miles from Burlington. It records an average high of 82°F in July and an average low of 16°F in January. About 39 inches of rain and melted snow fall in a normal year, most of it in August. Freezing nights (32°F or below) come about 136 times a year. Cold winters mean heating calls, snow plowing and winter car trouble, and the first freeze sends everyone searching at once. A website that changes with the season helps: winter hours, summer specials, storm-season notices, sent by email and included in the monthly fee.
