Buy a parka.


And a bikini.

But don't take the tags off the bikini and keep the receipt.

Thought so, lol.

We did an RV trip in the Canadian Rockies in May 2006 so I suppose it will be quite simular temperatures to that!

Cheers for the reply.

This is for Maine. Like ABY it's not unusual to wear shorts and a winter coat at the same time.

Anywhere between 15 degrees and snowing and 80 degrees and sunny. Welcome to New England in the spring.

In all seriousness, plan for mid-fifities and drizzley. With the occasional blizzard.

Where in New England?

Temps range from -20>70F on any given day, sunny and lovely to blizzard storms.

Tends to be warmer and more wet/muddy on the coast while more snow inland and around the mountains.

We first moved over here on the 28th February 2005. I remember the first two months well. During March we were being woken up by the town snowplough every night. During April we were lying on a rug on the lawn in swimwear eating Ben & Jerry's and sipping frozen cocktails.

After checking and finding most KOA's in New England shut in beginning of April and also reading your replies, have decided to postpone RV trip till later in the year. August or September might be good!

Cheers for replies, made me laugh,
