Weather by month
Burlington
Vermont
A lake town with a long snowy winter, a green explosion in spring, and one perfect autumn that half the Northeast drives up for.
The best time to come
June and July for the long light, the waterfront and the outdoor calendar; September for the clearest air and the first color up high. Peak foliage in the valley usually lands in the first half of October, with the mountains turning a week or two before that.
