I don't know about other parts of the country but here in Maryland it has been a very benign winter so far (not that it every really gets cold or blizzardly anyway)and I am missing SNOW!
I grew up in Chicago - the very windy city, and spent 22 years in upstate NY so snow and cold are part of my biorhythms. And I am really missing winter. I was reading on the weather channel that there was a big snowfall in Syracuse this week and I wished I could just transport myself there (because the airport is probably closed).
I loved walking late at night in the neighborhood ans snow softly drifts down, a steady pace, and utter quiet. I love to see it reflected in the street lights, illuminated, rushing past the air to the ground. I love the fire and ice, the storm and fury of blizzards - the wind howling and eerie banshee and the snow coming so fast and thick it forms a white screen that hides the rest of the world. Call me crazy, but I miss winter.
