We get very little snow in December. January-March is the snow jackpot in Boston.

That’s true.

And you'll regret saying this when it's still snowing in April. The rest of the country will get a nice Spring thaw and feel the warm sun on their skin. We'll still be shoveling & salting like idiots.

No my least fav season is spring. Winter, fall, summer then spring.

Welcome to New England... it'll either snow tomorrow or not until next year. Or, somehow, both. It all depends on chance.

This is my 2nd year in MA, I used to live in Calgary so I am missing the cold snowy winter days.

You're about 5-6 years too late to the snow game in MA. We're basically a desert these days

Hush your mouth. After 2015 we don’t need anymore winters like that.

That year was a nightmare for me as a disabled person. Couldn’t leave my house for months

Edit: typo fixed

Until you have to dig out… if you live in a complex with a garage then you don’t get to vote for immense snow storms

A desert? I agree that snow totals have gone done over the years, but they’ve largely just been replaced with winter rain and sleet, there’s still plenty of winter precipitation. For instance, it rained most of the day just this Wednesday. Droughts around here seem to happen in the summer (and they are far from every year).

Calgary is such a cool beautiful city, welcome to Massachusetts!

It is! I love MA too, but nothing beats the cold cold winter up there!

I went there in the middle of winter (few years back) and it was insanely cold also very windy, drove 10 minutes outside the city and was very surprised to see cowboys

I was talking to a homeless guy today who told me we are expecting some flakes this weekend. Damn that made me out of touch to get my news from a homeless guy, but I guess he needs to know more than I do.

Join us in the Berkshires, we are expecting snow Sunday. Only an inch, but still.

Lucky you. I just want a snowy December.

It has been weird. The ski centers have been making snow, the last few days have seen the 40s. Nights are cold enough but the days have been warm. The snow will be gone by Monday.

It was almost 60 today! I love/hate these days when I start in longjohns and end up sweating in a tee-shirt.

We are "supposed" to get a 'wintry mix' of snow and rain on monday, according to the last time I looked at the weather forecast

We might see a bit of the light stuff this month sometime in the last 20 years there’s been a real shift to not seeing any real snow until January.

Of course we could get 6” around Christmas but it’s much more unusual than it used to be.

Be careful what you ask for. It wasn't all that long ago that after nearly a snowless winter, every Sunday and Wednesday brought a new blizzard and roofs were collapsing and roads unnavigable because of high snowbanks. It is still early. Winter is coming.
