Yall out there in Wyoming are colder, with more snow than we are down in the valley looks like. Last few weeks its been flopping from stupid cold, setting records (-29f), to unseasonably warm. Our low was 25° last night!

I've been saying it feels like this February has been like March up here…melt, deep freeze, melt, deep freeze..between bone dry arctic air further dried by the furnace running so much in the deep freezes and then the dang snow mold melting during the warmups, my sinuses are killing me!
The coldest we got this winter was early in December. But the second coldest was just a few mornings ago which I've got a picture of here. Weird winter this year, unseasonably warm January…

Sun lighting up the mountain this am...
Dang I'm going to quit complaining haha! Brrr!
It was a pretty similar pattern here, just not as extreme. We had that warm snap that started melting the snow in the mountains, way too early and when it does that it just eveaporates it off before it gets to the rivers.
I'm a farmer, and rely on that water runoff for our ranch. Luckily, we've had some pretty good storms come through since and bring our snowpack back up to well above average.

No no, complain all you want!
. We're used to this up here BUT…by the end of February I think everyone in both western Canada and the American Midwest are right thoroughly sick of the cold haha. And we share your concern every year abojt the need for the snow moisture to not just dissipate, especially further in the south of the province. Where I am is the edge of where the prairie ends and the Canadian boreal forests begin, we naturally do get more moisture than what I call "flatland" running south of us into North Dakota and onward, but still very vulnerable to the threat of drought and that affects everyone. Our economy is built on agriculture and oil, the farmers don't make it we all don't make it, though increasingly people don't seem to understand that

Add: we get more moisture and have more fertile soil BUT it all gets evened out by a notably shorter growing season between frosts.No no, complain all you want!

Hey you're smart tho, you're in a vehicle with a heater!
I live in town so I usually walk the kids to school, I need the exercise and they're snug as a rug, they're little yet so I pull them in a wagon and they're under blankets and bundled up. But in the coldest snap of December this year I walked them in -40 or so. Upon returning home (it's about a mile round trip) this was my face haha

2° here this March morning....wondering if I will ever see highs above freezing? Through January and February, we only had 3 or 4 days that got above 32°....I guess I'll just sit here and sip my Keto coffee, munch on my not-keto stroopwaffle, and look at the elk on the hillside....
