Detroit, MI is finishing up the 2nd snowiest February and 3rd snowiest month on record. The month had 31.7" of snow. The season is now at 59 inches, and there has been snow on the ground all winter save for a few days of thaw, not to mention its been deep most of the time. A good "old-fashioned" rough winter here in the Great Lakes!!!
Argh, if only I could have moved during this winter. Oh well, I hope next winter's snowfall amounts are decent.

Good to hear Detroit had a "classic" winter. It was a great one here in Northern New Jersey with nearly continuous snowcover since Christmas.
So what happened to Winter? Where I live in the midwest, it's been mild for the past 2-3 weeks now. All season long, I've only had a total of 21" of snow - below average for me - while everyone around me got nailed with blockbuster snow storms. Now that it's gotten mild, we've been getting nailed by a lot of rain which, if it were snow, would easily add up to 20"+ snowfalls. I'm a snow lover, so this Winter has been a major disappointment for me.
I had a feeling I would have to resurrect this thread.
Very exciting day of weather. Heavy rain and wind all day with flood watches and warnings in effect. Now a Winter Weather Advisory tonight. Possibility of an inch of snow and a glaze of ice. Hopefully it'll materialize.

I am tired of sub-zero temperatures by now (well, I always am not long after going through winter, but my patience just gets tried the more I wait)! Just going outside to shop for groceries in -6C (21F) with wind chill still annoys.
Luckily, next week's highs are all at or above freezing.
Still, I wish it would hurry up a little faster and be/feel like spring 2011 and not winter 2010-2011 here .
Would nice to see some actual green here too in the scenery!

Winter fatigue seems to be setting in for most people lol.
I'm ready for some slightly milder (40s), rainier, and cloudier weather but would like to see a few more snow events before the season comes to a close. Unlikely, but stranger things have happend. Heck, there's been major snowstorms in April.
