Providence climate

Providence’s climate varies based on the seasonal changes, moderated by the Atlantic Ocean. Lows average in the single digits during the winter months and high temps can reach in the 90s during the summertime. Humidity is a major factor in Providence weather so if you’re planning a Providence trip during the summer months, plan accordingly. Thunderstorms are a threat during the summer months and hurricanes can reach the coastal area of Providence during the late spring, early summer times. Winters are very cold and stormy, with plenty of snow and high winds.

Taxis and buses are plentiful in Providence, and the Amtrak trains come through the city on a daily basis.
