Winter didn't start on 12/15, and this month has a long way to go.

a "thaw" which has been ongoing for the past 30 days now. Chicago has seen back to back 60s this month, something which has only been done TWICE in the past 75 years (last time was in 2008). The warmth has been outdueling the cold in the Midwest this winter, and that's just facts. Even the east hasn't really been all that cold.

Model runs are drying up and outside of the Lakes looks like a lot of waste of cold air in the heart of winter. Then it gets warm again. Sigh. Sure I’ll get a few inches the next 5 days but it’s basically nothing for here. Boring light lake effect. The storm drought when it matters continues for yet another year.

Yeah what happens to the Ram @Deweydog and the snow shovel killer Mazda?
