I was just going to ask that same question......We have had more 80 PLUS degree days this winter....than some summers up here.
Now it is spring, and getting cold again.

My wife and I laughed about this today, We bought sled for the grand kids. As we live on a big hill. Everyone around slide off our hills here. Laughed and told her when we bought it at Lowes in Nov, That after buying it we would not have a winter. This fall I plan on buying 2 more and as Snow Shovel hope it works again.

Because of Silver's weather 'gurus' grim forecast, and a long white winter last year, I sprung for a 35 HP Kioti tractor with a 5', rear pull snow blower. That did it. Winter up until about 2nd week of March was non existent, then we've had some good catch-up. Here it is co-habitating with my model trains. We had 2 feet of the white stuff a few days ago.

Jefe: wow! Nice. If you don't use it, we will ....to shovel pollen ! Its 81F here currently (about 38F above normal). Just got the peas and carrots planted; we put in 2 cranberry bushes yesterday.
The "terrible winter" is now the winter that was not (with exception of the Canadian Rockies region, and high-elevation Oregon).
Not only a nice tractor Jefe, but appears from the view, a nice model train set up as well.
Just speaking to a check-out lady at the store today how it seems weird to be wishing for March weather around here. March was so nice, April has been much cooler.
But, on the bright side we have been getting some desperately needed moisture.

....we haven't had more than about 11 millimeters of precip since early/mid March! We are as dry as the Southwest here in our region (100 km and more east of Montreal). That frontal precip from the mid-west entirely missed us overnight (it did hit Montreal 100 kilometers to the west of us, however) !
Not a spec of rain, just wave after wave of pollen and dust driven by 35-MPH winds (our trees are not leafed-out yet-- net even close, so nothing to mitigate the wind/dust)...Oh! We did hit 83.4F yesterday! At 11 PM last night, it was still 78F
