Where's the Snow?
Christmas came and went and we still haven't seen any snow here in Prague. We've rarely seen the temperature below 0 celsius. Granted, Prague does not get a great deal of snow but our lack of snow combined with a lack of snow back at our old home, New Hampshire, is a bit unusual.
Since people keep asking what the weather is normally like here let's do a quick Boston to Prague weather comparison. Overall, Prague has a more mild climate, lending to fewer extremes than Boston. Prague's average winter temperature is about 4 degrees (farenheit) warmer than Boston. In the summer Prague stays about 7 degrees cooler and is less humid. Prague gets less precipitation year-round, with winter being the driest season so I suppose I shouldn't expect much snow. However, Prague is cloudier, averaging 2-3 hours fewer sunlight per day.
