When I was little we could go almost an entire week without breaking single digits. I am confident I will never see that again in my lifetime

Yup, I remember a few winters we went a week without hitting the plus side of zero.

I don’t miss it. It was hunker down survival mode. Needed to bundle up just to run to the woodshed to grab an armload of wood. I ended up with frostbite one because I touched a piece of metal that was -20 while I was trying to get a car to start.

Thing is, that kind of brutal weather is what kept ticks and shit like that at bay. All those gross things from the Warner climates

it will happen at some point. but much much less frequently. i went to high school with students that snowmobiled there. good luck now. we have no snow. the weather has changed. look forward to a lot of winters that are just really long and sometimes cold falls.
