This is my 2nd year in MA, I used to live in Calgary so I am missing the cold snowy winter days.

Lucky you. I just want a snowy December.

I was talking to a homeless guy today who told me we are expecting some flakes this weekend. Damn that made me out of touch to get my news from a homeless guy, but I guess he needs to know more than I do.

You're about 5-6 years too late to the snow game in MA. We're basically a desert these days

It has been weird. The ski centers have been making snow, the last few days have seen the 40s. Nights are cold enough but the days have been warm. The snow will be gone by Monday.

January when it always snows

Hush your mouth. After 2015 we don’t need anymore winters like that.

We get very little snow in December. January-March is the snow jackpot in Boston.

Calgary is such a cool beautiful city, welcome to Massachusetts!

It is! I love MA too, but nothing beats the cold cold winter up there!

Until you have to dig out… if you live in a complex with a garage then you don’t get to vote for immense snow storms

It was almost 60 today! I love/hate these days when I start in longjohns and end up sweating in a tee-shirt.

That year was a nightmare for me as a disabled person. Couldn’t leave my house for months
Edit: typo fixed

I went there in the middle of winter (few years back) and it was insanely cold also very windy, drove 10 minutes outside the city and was very surprised to see cowboys

We are "supposed" to get a 'wintry mix' of snow and rain on monday, according to the last time I looked at the weather forecast

A desert? I agree that snow totals have gone done over the years, but they’ve largely just been replaced with winter rain and sleet, there’s still plenty of winter precipitation. For instance, it rained most of the day just this Wednesday. Droughts around here seem to happen in the summer (and they are far from every year).

We might see a bit of the light stuff this month sometime in the last 20 years there’s been a real shift to not seeing any real snow until January.
Of course we could get 6” around Christmas but it’s much more unusual than it used to be.

And you'll regret saying this when it's still snowing in April. The rest of the country will get a nice Spring thaw and feel the warm sun on their skin. We'll still be shoveling & salting like idiots.

No my least fav season is spring. Winter, fall, summer then spring.

Welcome to New England... it'll either snow tomorrow or not until next year. Or, somehow, both. It all depends on chance.
