On the bright side, this is an el Nino winter, which are typically milder than normal (at least after its been going for a year, the transition ones like last winter aren't as affected), so this isn't necessarily the new norm and next winter might be more snowy.
But on the other hand, this is by far the mildest winter I've ever seen, and the last few winters have all been milder than the previous el Nino winter, so this could be the norm within a decade. And we still have an el Nino summer coming.
Ok, new bright side: it's an interesting time to be alive!
I'm seriously tired of "living in interesting times".
Growing up I didn't really get how that was supposed to be an insult, I definitely understand it now though.
If somebody's gotta live in interesting times, I'd rather it be me than someone less equipped, like my ancestors.
