Port-Jervis
bills itself as "The Queen of the Shawangunks." It's a pleasant little town located at the junction of three states, New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, just east of the Appalachian Plateau and at the foot of the Shawangunk Mountains. This town that served as a transportation center for hundreds of years is also known as "The River City," and "The Gateway to the Upper Delaware River Region." Port Jervis was the first stop on the Old Mine road, which was the first 100-mile road in America. It then served as a port town on the Delaware and Hudson Canal and finally as a division center for the New York and Lake Erie Railroads. Most of the area's major roadways still pass through or near Port Jervis. This is a traditional town, where Arbor Day, Flag Day, Memorial Day and Labor Day are all still celebrated and the Declaration of Independence is read on the 4th of July. There is also a Halloween Parade and Christmas Parade through town each year. Places to visit in town include the Gillinder Glass Museum, the Veteran's Memorial Park, the Port Jervis Turntable, historic Fort Decker and the Mahackamack Churchyard, Elks-Brox Park, Riverside Park and West End Beach.

Port Jervis Weather & Climate
|
|
|
The Catskill Mountains has a climate with many variations depending on the elevation. There is a totally different winter in the mountains and the higher plateaus over 1,000 feet. There, the grip of winter is strong and steady, and above freezing temperatures are less common. Average January temperatures are three to four degrees colder at elevations from one to two thousand feet and over seven degrees colder at elevations above two thousand feet. Snowfall is fairly uniform during the month of January in the Catskills. The third week of July is generally the hottest time of the year in the Catskills, and rainfall during the warm months is usually confined to a few days rather than spread throughout the month. September has warm days, cool nights and fog at dawn over the Hudson valley. By October the hills are a kaleidoscope of color, and the first hard freeze is usually at the end of October.
