moscow area climate (Boise: Valentine's day, live in, stats)

[solitary sister]

wow! the snow fall stats show lots of snow, but does it really stick around? or does the rain come and melt it away the next day?
I live in Malad Idaho, and I'm tired of being practically snowed in for the month of January. We get snow for Christmas and it doesn't melt until Valentine's day. Someone please talk about the snow/rain/cold/winter
situation in the Moscow area.
Also- How soon does spring come? We don't really get spring until almost the end of April here in Malad.
thanks
in
advance!

I think they are still waiting for spring in Moscow
My friend who lives there sent me horror pictures and stories of months of snow on his land in Moscow this past winter. Feet of snow.
His wife said " one more winter like this and it's divorce court or Boise ".
That about says it all and they have lived there for 16 years.

That's the facts Mamm.

well thanks! I wouldn't mind if the snow was just rained away!
so "moscow has a mild climate" isn't true, sounds like.
