It's been so warm this winter up here in Montreal, the temperature was around 10-15°C up until late November. We had one major snowfall which melted immediately. Then another snowfall in early January that kind of stuck around but with alternating warm-cold weather with rain, everything kind of just half melted and froze then turned into slush and froze again.

We can't do any winter activities because it's either too warm to have ice skating rinks, or there's not enough snow to ski or for tobogganing. Even walking outside is dangerous because of how slippery or wet everything is.

I live in NY and was just thinking about how it used to snow once a week when I was a kid, that was 20 years ago. I watched Planes, Trains, and Automobiles with Steve Martin and John Candy the other day and they were dealing with a Blizzard in Novemeber.
I've barley had to put on a coat this year. Feels like I'm going crazy that it's already February and like you said there's been 1 real snow fall and it was gone within a couple days.

I know!!! A friend of mine went to New York just last week and he was wearing only a sweater. I couldn't believe it.

Fuck yeah it's been weird up in the border area. It's 60 F (15 C) today in Detroit Metro area. Light jacket weather. In February. The fuck.

Usually at this point we would've had quite a few snow storms. We've had two. The second of those was a rain/snow mix type shitstorm.

Yup, pouring rain yesterday and +10c on the north shore. Wacky.
