This winter is more like what I remember in the mid to late 70's. I was able to X country ski almost all weekends in the Detroit area from before Christmas to mid March.
Actually this type of weather is one of the reasons I returned to Detroit from St. Louis.

We're having one of the coldest winters since I've been here. It will be interesting to check the average daily temperatures for Regina and Detroit at the end of the winter and compare them to other years. BTW, much of the Middle East and Asia is having their coldest winter in fifty years. And that's not to say that global warming isn't real. The earth's temperature is changing gradually, as it always does. But the year to year fluctuations you see or think you see have nothing to do with it. It's much more gradual than that.
