NEVER!! When Mr. W was making the pitch for us to move from the northern prairie city of my upbringing to the northern coastal city of his upbringing, he told me, “oh, the winters are so much better. It’s not as cold and it really doesn’t rain THAT much.” HA!! I didn’t really believe him, but agreed to move for other more practical reasons. Now, I am so completely overjoyed when I see the slightest sliver of blue sky through the mass of clouds or a miniscule ray of sunshine. The winters here are not minus 30 celcius, but they are wet and they are cold. Maybe not freeze-to-death if your car breaks down cold, but they are bone-chilling.
