Toronto has an average January temperature of -7 C to -1 C (19 F to 30 F). This past weekend, I think we were up to 9 C (48 F). Although a January thaw like that isn't a freak show here, it is quite uncommon (and quite nice, really).
It's been so mild all winter that I have only taken my snow boots out last week when we finally had some snow dump on us for a change. Yet, our snowfall has only been a quarter of what it should be by now on average. I think I wore my boots twice. The sidewalks melted fairly quickly.
I have yet to complain about the snow and cold this season. There's no reason to. It's been rather nice.
