Winter here does just suck, with lots of grey skies and snow/ice/cold rain. The weather does try to make up for it during the brief tease of spring, summer, and early fall, but anyone who tells you the winters here are great is a bald-faced liar. This is an exceptionally mild winter. It sucks that it was too cold to enjoy the first sticking snow of the season. This one is ok, but I wish there was more. We usually get at least one sticking snowstorm a month through April and sometimes at least one snow event in May. Usually there would be a lot more snow by now but it has been unusually mild since that deep freeze around Christmas.
