Several years ago we had way too much snow, the kids missed almost three weeks of school. Another year we had ice storms all winter. This past winter lasted for 4 days in November. I'm ready for some normalcy, already. Normal for northern Arkansas; rain starts around Halloween, cold snap around Thanksgiving, 2 or three snows around Christmas, warm a little in January, first of February get more snow (not ice or tornadoes again, Mother Nature, do you hear me?), then snow showers until the middle of March, then slooooowly warming until about the middle of May. Had I been more energetic I could have planted my garden in January, we were hitting upper 70's by then! Ready for it to get back to the way it's supposed to be!
