Who said this winter was trash? Good winter, yes. B+, which is good, very good. But an A+? (Which is perfect, this winter has not been) That's weenie crazy, a whole different level of craziness.Wood Chipper! -

Winters for me is around the days before Thanksgiving to well int March/early April. March April storms usually suck though... It was a B+ Winter at best so far. A+ it is not...., not even close to tell you the truth. -

Damn Warm people creating new Spring threads too early! It's Winter damnit! We are not METS so continue winter! I'm glad it's in the 40s/drizzle and overcast and hope it continues! Hell, we only receive a solid 2-3 month of possible cold/cloudy/snowy winter weather per year so why are these idiots want to rush into Spring? June, July and August I understand but early March? F-that! Hope this spring is cold. miserable and damp! -

Cooling down quickly, 35f. Lots of melting during the day, freezing stuff at night going on. Watch your steps early in the morning. Still have mounds in parking lots 6 to 10 ft.... -

And I mean this seriously. I knew shit about droughts/ice jams before you. Speak, provide some stats and maybe I can learn something? We are in a drought but by the snow melting/ground squishy/squashy I wouldn't think so? Go figure? Even the streams/ponds/lakes don't look "real" bad? -

Sun angle has always been brutal once late Feb occurs. Many on this board seem to ignore it but we are the stage right now where snowing at night is almost a must if you want it to accumulate on all surfaces. RedSky is a big fan of overnight storms so this is right up his alley... 51F -

I meant we went a month practically without snow. Jan 25th-Feb 22 in the heart of winter...so no +. -

It's still an "A" in my book. Going a month in the middle of winter without snow is a negative. I don't give two shits about monthly averages. Getting shut out for a month in the middle of winter has consequences. Even a couple of one two three inch clippers would have made a difference. The cold stretch was great but getting shut out in snow sucks. Very good winner but not a A+... -

It's no more than a "A" winter in my book. The drought of snow from Jan 23/25th to Feb 23/25th (Peak winter) with all that cold in place is why it will never be a A+. That is like your All Star batter belting .340 during the season then batting .250 during the playoffs. (Peak time) Sorry winter "A+" is for the elite...not failing at peak times. 28F @ 1:05PM/ Winds cranking a bit, colder than expected and thank God the Liquor store is open...
