I used to live in North GA and there was definitely a winter there, all deciduous trees go bare there and from Dec-Feb the average lows are below freezing. But definitely not a "real" winter. Some years there is no snow at all lol
I honestly don't even think Vancouver has a real winter but a definite winter for sure.

Agreed... as fascinating as I find the topic, the "subtropical discussion" has been beaten to death.
I was just wondering if there was a meteorological or objective definition to what defines what winter is as there are plenty of subjective ones.
You're right in that Vancouver definitely does not have a "real" winter in the sense of somewhere like Thompson, Manitoba but a 16C degree difference from the hottest month to the coldest month is a significant change in temperature throughout the year.
