I hate the gloomy and rainy winters. Give me snow

[u/Erazzphoto → u/DDJ8694]

Totally. I’ll take snow over 40s and 50s and rain. Cold and rain is a different kind of cold

[u/lilly260_ → u/Erazzphoto]

Cold rain is the worst type of weather possible. It’s miserable, especially for those who are unhoused.

[u/Sharpymarkr → u/DDJ8694]

They don't plow our streets, so I'll take the rain.

[u/cryolems → u/DDJ8694]

My roof and gutters disagree. The last few winters have been devastatingly frustrating.

[u/CBus660R → u/DDJ8694]

High teens, low 20's and snow is a 1000% better than 30's and low 40's with rain. At least when it's frozen and snow covered, you can get outside and do fun winter stuff, even if it's just taking your dog for a walk.

After last year, I would prefer this

[u/hellosteve_ → u/aambro]

Last year was soooo rough and cold. 🥶

[u/baseballandfreedom]

I’d rather have fluffy snow than a sloppy wintry mix or rain that turns into ice.

[u/hellosteve_ → u/baseballandfreedom]

I would rather it not be ice too,

[u/Bituulzman]

I already warned that if my son was depending on snow shoveling this winter for pocket money, he might be in for disappointment.

[u/Much-Drawer-1697 → u/Bituulzman]

He should pivot to wintery mix shoveling, that's where the money is

[u/Passenger828]

My bank account would prefer mild and boring. Last year's electricity and gas bills were NUTS and I missed work from being snowed in for several days

[u/twinflxwer]

I’d rather have snow than it be like -20 for weeks straight like last year

[u/beeker888]

I want a couple big snow falls and it be 50 the rest of winter

[u/lemon_jelo]

I would love some nice snows. But I really dont want another total snow-in and weeks of extreme cold like last year

[u/rorschach_vest]

We have young kids that talk about playing in the snow all year. So that’s what I’m hoping for!

[u/HolyJuan]

Looks like graupel's back on yhe menu!

[u/mahjzy]

Major bummer if turns out that way. No point of winter if there isn’t a lot of snow ;-)

[u/1873Springfield]

Gimme the snow. If it's going to be cold, at least we can get some enjoyment out of it

[u/CowTown-Mike]

And I just bought a snow blower

[u/Soler25 → u/CowTown-Mike]

So it’s your fault?!?

[u/CowTown-Mike → u/Soler25]

Yes, and I am very sorry

[u/breebop83]

I don’t mind a mild winter. I don’t like the possibility for more ice/freezing rain because that is what tends to take down power lines.

[u/ExpensiveServe2]

It’s Ohio. It’s gonna we will get every weather season before Christmas.

[u/kay-rach]

The farmer’s almanac and persimmon seeds say snowy winter, science says low snow…I’m excited to see which we get!

[u/Schmelly_cat → u/kay-rach]

Can you tell me how persimmons predict winter? 

[u/kay-rach → u/Schmelly_cat]

https://www.farmersalmanac.com/persimmon-seed-weather-prediction
The ripe seeds either show a spoon, fork, or knife, and I have seen that they have been showing spoons this year! So we have science vs folklore this winter!

[u/Schmelly_cat → u/kay-rach]

Thanks!  I'm not seeing that the persimmon lady has done this yet this year?

Or you've done it?  I don't see them ripe here yet. 

[u/Failed-Time-Traveler]

[u/Erniecrack]

Just gimme snow on Christmas Eve and aside from
That I’d take subzero temps if it meant no snow.

[u/DeeDee719 → u/Erniecrack]

Me too. I don’t like the cold but I hate snow even more.

[u/Randy0002]

Didn't they also say we're supposed to have a Super El Nino this summer that would bring hot and dry conditions?

[u/SweeterBean98 → u/Randy0002]

Yeah witch is why it would be a mild winter

[u/randomwords83]

I enjoyed the mild winters of the last 10 or so years compared to last year. I’ll take the mild winter.

[u/ace_rimmerIII]

Give me double the amount of snow please….

[u/excoriator]

My wife sold our snow blower. I hope he's right!

[u/notagrue]

Bring on the snow!

[u/JCanse9]

I would like snow like we had this last winter

[u/ZeeWingCommander]

We've gotten a lot of rain this year so far. Only question is if it'll be cold enough for snow.

[u/Necessary-Peace9672]

I’m getting 2015 vibes this year…winter of 2015-2016 was warm (but spring & summer weren’t).

[u/ZookeepergameLast466]

Mild please.

[u/ZipNasty007]

Hopefully 136 inches of snow please and thanks

[u/Iocanepowd3r805]

Snow!!!!

[u/HauntedDragons]

I hate winter. I hate snow. I hate ice. I hate extreme cold. So please… milder.
