It has been really warm all winter
but then again it's socal so 70 isn't unusual. My daughter is visiting from Baltimore and she is really enjoying it. My son went to New Mexico and brought me back this big foot stocking cap so I had the picture taken with it on but it stayed home for the hike.

This poor apple has fought to stay on it's tree all winter. I think there needs to be a story about the lonely apple along the lines of the ugly duckling

Not here it ain't.
That was the coldest December in a very long time and January is a winter wonderland.

On the South coast of England not far from the sea the temperature has not been all that low, but rain has been heavy and persistent. Having been caught out a few times I have upped my game with waterproofs and wind blocks so as not to arrive home saturated, and I have retired some kilts which are too cold to wear in the wet.
One advantage of wool is that it is warm even when wet through.

We've been repeatedly buried in SW Ontario. Thank the Lord for a good snowblower!

I used to thank God for a strong Son and Daughter to shovel but they's all growed up, now.

We have had several weather warnings of forecasted snow to accumulate to significant depths here in Southern Scotland, even to the extent we stocked up on extra foodstuffs, but it has all fallen as rain, rain and more rain, and when the rain stops for a bit, it freezes on the wet ground making it dangerous to venture out. I am heartily sick of these bleak January days with their grey skies during the short hours of daylight. Oh for the blue skies of Canada!

my son was wasted
Not only is he warm bodied (according to his wife he uses a fan at night in winter) so the cold doesn't bother him but he'd have done great in shoveling snow drifts and pulling cars out of drifts

We don’t have much winter to speak of in southeast Texas, but it was 82°F on Christmas Day this year.
