Starts with the first low below 3ºC (generally in May) and ends with the last low below 5ºC (generally in September).
Similar here with low night temps into September, but the worst of winter is usually over by mid-August - with the first spring-like days. (not this year though!)

Winter starts in Germany around the 1st of Dec, though it's highly variable here. This year we had snow in mid Oct which is too early. Usually we got or first snow in December. Highs can range between 10C and -3C (50F<->20F) and lows between 8C and -10C (45F<->15F). The highs in January average around 4C (40F) and lows around 1C (35F)
it doesnt i am from chicago. been waiting since 1977 for winter here.
not yet.
Same perspective for me.
Neither on Long Island nor Geneva does winter ever really start. Feb 2015 was close in Islip, with averages of 0/-11C, but not really there yet. Geneva...
But there are plenty of wintry places nearby in both cases.

From my perspective, the whole of the Nov-Mar period in Geneva would be winter.
