A point to ponder: Three years after the "winter that wasn't" came the "Snow Winter" of 1880-81, that Laura Ingalls Wilder talks about in her book entitled "The Long Winter." One never knows...

I have seen a bunch of videos on Laura Engles books and Stores.. My Third Grand Teachers were neighbors to the Engles in MN where the Little House in the Big Woods was. They were also offered to buy stocks in Cocoa Cola , but said it tasted terrible and declined to buy any stocks.

Minnesota winters can go all over the place. When I lived there from 82 to 86 we had a normal winter in 82-83. We had an absolute record-breaking winter in 83-84, and then the next two winters were so warm refrigeration trucks had to be brought in so that St. Paul could have some ice sculptures for the carnival. Warm winners are not unusual, nor catastrophic winters. That’s the joy of living in the upper Midwest.

We had plenty of snow last year. Lakes levels were up in spring and this year is just different. I did shovel a half inch of ❄️ snow yesterday .

Here in South West MI had has snow on Halloween .. some in Mide November but it always melts in two days.. As far and pond and swamp levels .. It rained so much in the Fall that Farmers had a hard time getting Crops in .. It has rained several days around Christmas too . We have had lots of rain for sure this winter.

Doesn't anybody remember the winter of '80-'81? Almost 60 degrees in January! Little to no snow at all except for 10 days or so in late February

It was pretty warm alright, but I am looking at the data for that winter and it was not like this. This year the lowest temp for the season has been 8. By this time in 1980 we'd had 12 days with lows colder than that. The lpw on Christmas 1980 was -12. December 1980 had 3 days over 40. We've had 16 this month., 4 of those over 50. As far as not having snow goes though, that was a remarkable winter. The only time we had more than an inch on the ground was 2/1/81-2/15/81.

Enjoy it Minnesota 😊😊

Hey Tex, we love the winter up here and are built to enjoy it unlike Texass. Lived there 21 years nothing is set up for the winter months and people just sit inside waiting for the February, March warmth. BTW, enjoy it when the drought takes out your reservoirs and there is no water, then enjoy your climate change.

​@iwejun bro get a life. Stop acting like snow is good

I remember experience a winter or two without snow in the Twin Cities!😁👍😊

Im 76. Hard to believe. I have never seen no ice on the lakes in January A 1st for me

I think it was 1988 (not too sure of the year)when I worked at Lakeside in Plainview that they shut down at midnight but we couldn't make it back to Wabasha. When we followed the plow out in the morning it was pushing cars off the road that had been buried during the night.

No snow here in south east Idaho either. Island Park Idaho, the snowmobile capital of the West. No snowmobiling going on. I'm sure its going to affect the businesses.

I love the lack of snow this year… last year the snow made and black ice became a recipe of disaster when it made my truck slide off the road and roll several times down the ditch 😅

36 is not cold

Eastern Washington no snow either. Can’t even remember or want to such a gloomy wet winter. Awful usually about 20 degrees and 2 ft of snow in the valleys this time or year

Yup. I'm near the border at 3200 feet. 1inch of wet, icy snow and above freezing. Last December I had 25 below zero at night and snow on the ground. It's 55 degrees above last winters temps and 20-30 degrees above normal. February could be way different!

Did anyone pick 12/27 for the ice out date.

What we’re seeing currently is weather modification. Yes it’s a thing that was developed in the 30s and 40s. The movie Forest Gump even touches on its use during the Vietnam war. Plenty of reading material on the Internet.

So clever. Funny, though, how the 20 hottest years on record have occurred in the last 25 years. Denying climate change today is like saying "science is BS." You're sure to get accolades for that kind of brilliant analysis, but consider the source. You can bet the farm those accolades are coming from folks who voted for Trump, so there's that.
