<p>This joke has gone on too long.</p>
<p>The heating works well. I’ve never heard complaints.</p>
<p>Dartmouth really has excellent dorms. They are always building new ones and knocking old ones down (or completely renovating them).</p>
<p>Oh, every dorm has heating and the heating works well. No heating in any building here would be like murder. I was just saying that if it’s very cold, Hanover (outdoors) becomes a giant freezer.</p>
<p>Haha I would kill to get in here, no matter how cold it gets. ILOVE hanover and i LOVE Dartmouth :)</p>
<p>The “whether” today in Hanover-not so nice. Lots of sleet and some snow on our way home from dropping our son off-looks a lot like Christmas though, and the Christmas tree on the green should be pretty.</p>
<p>Actually, that sleet and snow and rain is all up and down the East Coast. Not unique to Hanover.</p>
<p>i would be happy to even experience all that tortuous weather there</p>
<p>compared to the midwest, my son has found dartmouth whether quite tolerable. sure, it’s cold and snowy, but there isn’t a lot of wind and that helps considerably.</p>
<p>Yeah, there isn’t a lot of wind here. The weather becomes tolerable after a while. But the short days can be depressing at times.</p>
<p>My question is how much sun is there? Anyone can handle snow and cold (blizzarding outside as i type) but if it’s gray all winter, it won’t be nearly as tolerable.</p>
<p>It seems to be sunny a lot, based on what I can tell from the two Dartmouth webcams- there is one on the Baker Library tower and another an the roof of the Hanover Inn- you can google them.</p>
<p>This sums it up for me:</p>

<p>Sunny today, but my son says it was 6 out this morning with a windchill factor of -9 when he took his exam this morning.</p>
<p>It was freaking freezing this morning. In general, the mornings are pretty nasty… cold and cloudy/foggy usually. But midday is usually more bearable and sunny.</p>
<p>New England isn’t always this cold!! Haha this morning we had a -23 windchill and an air temp of like… 4. 
</p>
<p>It’s usually not gray. In fact, sometimes it’s too sunny and the snow blinds you. The wind can be bad once in a while, but in general is fine. The late spring/summer/fall makes winter worth it :)</p>
<p>Yep… sounds just like home. But if the wind isn’t bad ALL the time, it’s actually better.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I have a 9S and it is foggy/cloudy more often than not in the mornings.</p>
<p>wow I dont think I can survive in hanover!
I live in CA and its around 75 F during the day and 50-60 during the night and morning time. How am I supposed to adapt to 4 degree weather.</p>
<p>Just like the rest of the 18% from the West Coast. I grew up in Socal and have managed on the E coast for 3 decades.</p>
<p>Literally all but one of my so-cal friends are doing fine. They had always imagined that it was going to be worse than it was.</p>
<p>It’s really not as bad as I thought it might be either. Also, the Dartmouth co-op makes excellent scarves!</p>
