I live in the Midwest of the U.S. During the roughly 90 days of meteorological winter, there's usually snow on the ground for somewhere between 30-45 days, and we're usually good for 3-4 good -sized snowfalls of at least 4-6" per year.

This year? 1 big snowfall and maybe two weeks of snow on the ground total. It's seemingly rained more than it's snowed, which is weird for winter.

Yep . 50s (f) occasionally thru December Jan and feb in far northern Wisconsin snow belt… but at least one full week of almost consecutive days with above freezing temperatures for the majority of the daylight hours each of these months. Which in January and February is extremely abnormal. Watching the national and regional pressure maps and temp maps has been very odd over the last year too. And I watch them pretty much every day because if the lake is soft I need to know the weather. Winter tried for a few weeks at a time here and there, but it mostly lost. The most recent year that’s been anything close to this warm was the winter of 2016-17. And what would be outliers like this are happening more and more regularly. Just take a look at the change from normal in sea surface temperatures in the Bering Sea over the last 10 months to year timeframe.

I’d recommend anyone who wants to start paying close attention to how things are changing by watching the weather closely by the day to get the windy app… and the premium is worth it, let’s you see all the models
