Around here in Connecticut we are coming off daytime temps in the mid-upper 50's, with nighttime low temps higher than the average daytime high temp, i.e., nighttime lows in the upper 30's.

There's even a snowstorm in the making, looking like it may hit the mid-Atlantic coastal states.

Last winter I used the snow-thrower one time, and that was for a couple inches of wet snow. Back a decade or two ago, I would use the snow-thrower a dozen or so times each winter, sometimes for a foot or more of snow.

This cold blast is going to wake up some folk ...

@#2 ... Could have sworn this just used to be called winter and expected each year. ...

What used to be called winter was colder and snowier than this.
