New Bedford Guide Your Guide to New Bedford and South Coast, MA
Winter is officially here, but it seems like we have been making out in terms of temperatures. Our days have been uncharacteristically warm and pleasant. It isn’t until the mornings and evenings that we are reminded that it is, indeed, winter. That’s when we have to kick the heat on because temperatures often drop below freezing. So far, we haven’t had to utter the four-letter “S” word.
