I've heard Madison is great. But I've never heard anyone say anything good about the weather there...

To be fair people get way too hungup on the winter. Everyone entirely ignores the most amazing summers ever. 70s, sunny, slightly breezy for like 2 straight months. Its summer nirvana. The humidity is null compared to the bullshit we deal with in RVA. In WI and MN you can actually spend all day, all summer long, outside and not be at risk of heat exhaustion. So much more to do when you aren't hiding from the sun like that level in Mario.

And winter is cold, yeah. We have heaters in buildings and cars for that. Its not like Richmonders spend a lot of time outside in winter. You only deal with the biting cold between the door of a building and door of your car. You have proper winter sports too if you dress right. Ice skating (also have indoor), snowshoe, cross country ski, ice fishing, snow mobile
