I was hoping for a cold wet winter based on the winter outlook back in late November, but it hasn't happened yet, Dec was dryer than normal, January was wetter than normal but also warmer than normal, even when it does get cold (below 32) it only last two or three days at the best. I hope February proves me wrong but I'm not going to get my hopes up for it. I know it wasn't till mid Feb last year when we got our 3 to 6 inches of snow and ice. This latest so called Arctic front was a real bummer as it did not come close to what it might have been.
