December weather is early winter. Average temperatures are 42-54°F, so it is cool. NYC’s first snow usually falls in the first week of December.
Monday, December 25 is the Christmas national holiday, but New Yorkers celebrate many traditions. The regeneration of Mother Earth marked by the northern solstice is what northern religious traditions around this time are responding to. All the ancients were great astronomers who marked the solstice.
