How's the weather out East?

What a winter we've been having here in Calgary. I knew things were milder than normal, but I had to look at the almanac to see just how mild.

Since December 8th, we've only had 7 days where the high was below 0C. 5 days were above 10C and 19 days were above 5C. It tried to snow here over the last 2 days, but all we ended up with was a dusting of snow.

Of course, we can be all smug about the terrific weather. But as usual, we'll be all ready for days to get longer than darkness in March and just when we're no longer thinking about snow and cold - BOOM! - we'll get the typical Spring dump of snow which will be with us until almost the end of April.
