I much prefer the Upper Midwest's winters. Forty-below windchills aren't pleasant, but I'd take a winter with snow enough to ski in, any day over a dark drizzly chill like what's listed here; dramatic and interesting sets life to a much better rhythm. Also, the precipitation is lowish, but what about humidity? Maritime vs. inland makes a huge difference humidity-wise, since inland areas can get actual dry winds blowing. I can't abide by humid, least of all during an 80-degree summer like that one there.
