Honestly you just need to move up to Madison, we've had snow cover since December 12, average 51" of snow per year. Just enough torches to keep things interesting.
Due to the energy required for the latent heat of phase transition it's much harder to get much above average temps in winter because it would require temps to average above freezing much more often. going from 25 to 15 requires much less energy than 25 to 35.

Yeah I always hear about the LRC a few times a winter which makes me think they just find a couple times it matches the pattern from ~45 days back and make it work. If it was a true match we could just map out the whole winter.
parts of DMX that were under a WSW until 6 AM are now probably only going to get freezing drizzle the rest of the storm
La Crosse area is going to really get shafted. They were under an advisory(1 county away from a warning) and only had 0.8" as of 6pm
