I'd put money on not seeing any snow this winter.

It very very very rarely snows here.

It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and we're wearing sunglasses.

I think we're in for a warm winter, or so it's been predicted.

It's not even summer yet and today was pretty hot and humid. It feels like a thunderstorm's around the corner. Southern hemisphere seasons for the win. Hell, I've never even seen snow with my actual eyes (not that I've gone looking for it or anything).

Here's hoping for a winter this year, rather than last year's Three Season Cycle we got here in Virginia. :P

We had our first snow of the spring season down here in Tassie last weekend, while I was driving to Launceston nice and early there was a fine dusting of snow coming down all the way through the midlands.

We haven't had snow in 30+ years, so i'd be willing to bet we won't have any this year.

In this part of the United States, it's projected to be a wet, snowy winter. And I've seen two days in October where there was snow on the top of the mountains so far, which I've not seen in several years. So this winter will be interesting.

I'm gonna guess somewhere between the pacific and the... Sierra Nevadas?

I've only seen frost, so far. Snow I'm not expecting until... eh, mid-late november?
