February and even March can bring snow. You're right tho, seems like after the "polar vortex year" when it was like -10F at night we seem to just not get serious winters.

I really don't enjoy cold temperatures, snow, or winter in general really (unless I'm doing winter activities). But at the same time, I know that the lack of "proper" winter has many adverse effects on the environment so, with that in mind, the last couple years of "cool but not cold" winters are no bueno. And I expect it'll just get worse in the years to come.

I saw some kids during the December cold snap playing pond hockey by the skeet range at Nomahegan. It was nice seeing someone enjoying the cold.

I grew up in Jersey and some winters there were little to now snow. This is rare though and we still have February and March.
