<p>Avg. temp. is probably in the 20’s during the winter, I don’t know the avg. snowfall, but there is no denying that there is alot! Especially when there is a “lake effect” storm. Directly on Lake Ontario makes it pretty breezy some days! You need a good winter jacket, some nice Uggs (!), warm clothes and a good attitude! Everyone gets thru it. I am a grad (many yrs. ago, and my son is there now). Unlike most colleges, it is not unheard of to have a snow day! It is beautiful summer and fall and everyone really appreciates the spring! Your daughter certainly wouldn’t be the first down-stater to attend-they are probably the majority!</p>
