DriveWindow Canada route answer
What weather should I check between New York and Boston?
Check coastal rain bands, gusty wind near exposed bridges, and fog and low visibility in southern New England along I-95 and coastal New England. Spring and fall often bring fast-changing coastal systems. Winter drives need extra attention to freezing rain and snow timing. Refresh the forecast close to departure and verify provincial, state, or park road information.
