Winter - or not?

Winter hasn't materialized around here yet but it's only half past February and I'm still hoping it will get here. I love winter and this year has been a huge disappointment...no 20 degree temps and barely a snowflake. THINK SNOW!!!!!!!!!!

We've had plenty of winter here in Colorado!! Anyone who wants it can have it!

We actually had a cooler than average November and December with lots of snow. We had a nice January, then this month is so far one of the snowiest Februarys on record. And it's been hanging on to cold temperatures. Averages around this time of year are usually near 50 for a high, but it's been colder than that. I feel cheated since everyone else is getting such mild weather! Here in the Denver area we always get plenty of snow but usually our temps are much more mild. Cold makes me feel grumpy.

Some day I am going to move somewhere with absolutely no winter and I will not miss it.

This is like 2001, the winter that wasn't. My dahlias actually survived through that winter. We've had maybe a couple nights in the teens (F) but not close to 0, and only one measurable snowstorm (the day the asbestos guy was supposed to come, natch!)

We haven't had much winter either, I think we've had less than 7 days with snow, but it's been pretty cold and windy, lately. We're above freezing now. For me the perfect climate is on 30-40 latitude. I'm on 57. Oh well!

Here in NJ we are having quite a warmer winter than normal and we have had very little snow. October we had a few inches but since then only an inch to two and that's been about it. Very nice tho, I don't miss the snow and ice at all, not one little bit

No real winter here either. We had a few days where it was freezing but other than that we're wearing short sleeves.
I hope this doesn't mean we will have a bad hurricane season.

There was a tornado in far downstate Illinois yesterday. We are supposed to get rain changing to snow in the Chicago area over the weekend. I hope everyone else in the midwest is okay!

We are finally getting snow, but the storm is moving so slowly, it's been snowing for a day and a half now, and we barely have three inches. But at least we have some snow!

Indy has had a very unusual Winter so far. Only had to wear a coat maybe twice all season.
Yesterday was wonderful. 68 degrees and full sun all day. I turned off the furnace & opened
the windows for fresh air. I even saw convertables driving around. Today not as warm, but
still very nice. My crocus flowers have been blooming for last two weeks.
