Whoever thought that global warming would soon make snowy winters a thing of the past had no idea of what he was talking about. What a couple of degrees of warmer average global temperatures does or doesn't do is debatable. But removing snowy winters isn't one of them. I've seen -52 °F around here years ago. Last week I saw -34 °F. It would take over 70 °F of global warming to get rid of winters here.
