In the spring, flowers bloom along the Meadows Park walking paths in Flushing, and the streets are filled with warm light.

Let's talk about the weather in this neighborhood, which shows completely different faces in each season. I hope this information helps those considering moving to Flushing or those already living here who are curious about the weather patterns.

Flushing is located in the Queens area of New York, and its climate is classified as humid continental. The four seasons are distinct, with hot and humid summers and cold, snowy winters. The average annual temperature is around 12-13°C (about 55°F), and precipitation is relatively evenly distributed throughout the year at about 1,100-1,200mm.

Spring (March to May) is the most unpredictable season in Flushing. March still carries the remnants of winter, with average temperatures around 4-8°C, and there are days with snowfall. By April, temperatures begin to rise to an average of 10-16°C, and in May, it warms up to 15-22°C. Spring rain falls frequently, so an umbrella is sometimes necessary, but the sight of cherry blossoms and tulips blooming in Flushing Meadows Park amidst the rain is truly beautiful. On spring mornings, when the scent of flowers wafts along the walking paths, Flushing feels like the prettiest neighborhood in the world.

Summer (June to August) is hot and humid. Average temperatures in June range from about 20-26°C, while July and August can reach around 23-30°C, with many days feeling even hotter. The high humidity leads to a 'sticky summer,' and heat advisories are issued on some days. Rainfall is also abundant, often falling in the form of showers. However, late August to early September, when the US Open takes place, marks a time when the heat begins to ease, and Flushing buzzes with tennis excitement.

Autumn (September to November) is a beautiful season filled with colorful foliage. September is the tail end of summer and still warm (averaging 18-24°C), while October reaches peak fall colors with pleasant temperatures of 10-18°C. By November, temperatures drop significantly to around 5-10°C, requiring warmer clothing. The autumn foliage in Flushing Meadows Park is truly stunning, so be sure to take a walk in mid-October. It's filled with warm, vibrant colors.

Winter (December to February) is cold and snowy. Average temperatures in December range from about 2-7°C, with January and February being the coldest months, often recording temperatures between -5 to 2°C. The annual snowfall is about 25-35 inches (approximately 63-89cm), with 2-3 snowstorms occurring each year. The day after a heavy snowfall, when snowflakes blanket the streets of Flushing, a serene and pristine landscape unfolds, which has its own charm. In winter, thick jackets and waterproof boots are essential. Each of Flushing's four seasons seems to hold memorable scenes.
