a mild winter. the snow-total is pathetic. there usually is at least one or two significant snowfalls, even under warm winters. not so this year.

That is indeed pathetic. Even we managed to have more ice days and most likely more snow.

5th warmest winter on record. Some cool temps early in winter and a nice cold snap in early January with some sleet accumulation. Warmth dominated mid to late winter. No freezing temps since January 9th.

December was pretty wet, January had slightly above normal precip, and February was dry.

Whenever i saw these type of charts from any US city, i conclude that is pretty hard to find a warming trend in that country based on the charts, contrary to what happens in my country. I mean: while here in Buenos Aires almost all the top coldest winters were registered during early 20th century, wich is a strong sign of a warming trend, in your tables you have a lot of different decades throughout the centuries with years on both top warmest and top coldest lists. Pretty interesting.

Yeah, there's really no clear trend for winter temps in my area.
