I'm from Bangkok where it's sunny and 90 degree almost all year long. Once upon a time in my highschool years, I applied to be an exchange student. They sent me, who's never even seen snow once before, to Minnesota in winter. Stayed there for 1 entire year. One day during a -30°F snowstrom day, I looked out the window and thought why did they send me here, what am I doing here 😂 I enjoyed the one year there though, yeah... just one 😅
same, i’m brazilian and spent 6 months in winnipeg back in 2019. i pretty much turned into a zombie from how shitty winter made me feel. i don’t miss it one bit!!
As a German exchange student in Michigan ˋ98, I still long for the dry cold, huge snowfalls and amazing winter stars… I‘ve yet to see such an amazing display of stars and the dome shape over a -30F night around Ludington in the Nature Reserve
@@MM-we4no when it comes to being gloomy and depressed, you either are or you aren’t. A snowy winter is so much fun and beautiful to look at . It’s nice to live in an area that experiences four seasons. The season change is good for your mental health. Cold weather is supposed to boost your immune system. A cold winter gives people with seasonal allergies a nice break. And it’s just nice to experience that change first hand.

Im in florida now. Its hot 🥵 and humid. But not even plus 25 😂 Just not use to it… hard to regulate body temperature once you get that thick blood from -18 😂
Genuine question: why do you feel the cold or heat differently from most people? I used to be average ( I live in a temperate climate with 4 seasons in southeastern Europe), not overly affected by heat and cold ,but not over-dressed or under-dressed either. Then, hot flashes because of peri-menopause started ( the 2-10 years period before menopause) and suddenly I have to throw my outer layers in a minute and remain in a t-shirt and leggings at 0° CELSIUS in the middle of our winter. I'm lucky my plain city never had below -15° Celsius, like our mountain cities. So now I understand why some women feel like that, but I still don't understand why some men do...
Besides the heat, the humidity kills too, I lived in FL for two years, then decided to move back to Northeast, just the culture and climate down there not fitting me
On the other hand in tropical Singapore the sun can rise as late as 0715-0730h on days with bigger thunderstorms. It's also because the country follows neighbouring Malaysia's timezone that follows that of East Malaysia quite far away to the east, maybe so our stock trading hours are closer to those in East Asia, while other countries in the same longtitude e.g. Thailand, Indonesia are 1h behind

Greetings from the Great Smoky Mountains, North carolina, USA. I just slid my car off of the icy road last night on my way home from work. I'm in the mountains, and my car was sliding wayyyy too close to a 60-ft drop! Luckily it stopped before I went over the edge. VERY SCARY. We've currently got several inches of snow, and more is expected. I just went outside at 3:00 a.m. to shovel a place in the yard for my dogs to potty. The joys of winter.

@seyodys we adapt to the climate we grow up in and it's hard to regulate our internal temperatures to survive in a different environment. Polar bears can't survive in the tropics. I do like vacationing to warmer areas during the winter, because it does get brutally cold. Currently we are at 20° during the day and at night -4° (sun sets by 4:30/5:00pm) with wind gusts at 40-50 mph. A sunny 50° would feel like summer right now.
Similar in Colorado, just add 60 mph wind gusts, *STEEP* mile-long driveways, change Target to REI, hockey to skiing, and Florida to ….nowhere (we *love* our winters). 😊
I grew up in Colorado. Snow can be fun to play in. Not fun to live in. I’ve lived in Arizona for 20 years now. Yes, summer is miserable but at least I don’t have to shovel the sunshine off my car.
Like Sweden in all aspect. Never gonna understand why so many swedes that emigrated to America chose Minnesota of all the places. Nothing against Minnesota but swedes could just stayed at home with their relatives. Maybe they just hated their family so much that a life-dangerous trip over the Atlantic Ocean was worth it. 🤔
@@pixie_jerrie1823 Not all of them! Snow and cold is totally foreign from their experience. But most are just glad to be in peaceful and wealthy countries.
@@jw2442sorry, I prefer Target. Better customers, cleaner stores, no one sleeping out in the parking lot and better quality (explains the higher prices).
My friend is getting married in Minnesota in February…I’m still reeling over the fact that I will have to attend a February wedding in MINNESOTA. 😫 He’s from Montana though so I shouldn’t be so surprised. 😂

I'm from central Romania, 28 years old and I recall harsh winters(for us) back in my childhood. We didn't get a white Christmas for a while now, I day dream of myself living in a place like Minnesota to enjoy snow, frozen lakes and rivers. Also, dry winters screw up the soil and crops here
Unfortunately, we haven't had a real winter in years now. The snow is already melting rn, and this year we had at most 4 inches of snow where I am. I could deal with Florida sinking into the sea, but climate change took away my snow, and nothing hurts more.
San Diego resident here. Thanks for reminding me how much I love living here. Paying $3k in rent is worth every damn dollar to not have to shovel my car out of snow every morning for 7 months. Ya'll can keep it.
Minnesota is always rated in the top 10 places in the U.S. to live, regardless of the weather, so it's not so bad. I'm from MN, but I lived in South FL for 8 years and would NEVER live anywhere in the south again. It was miserable with the heat and humidity. It was disgusting arriving to work every day covered in sweat, or going outside at any given time most of the year. I've never complained about tte weather here since moving back. It's a culture. I like the calmness and beauty of winter, and I LOVE not sweating. Very funny video though! The mecca of MN - Target 🤣. It's definitely MY mecca!
I grew up in Daytona Beach and after traveling around the country, I settled in Minneapolis. I love it here and I learned to love the winters for the reasons you gave. P.S. I would much rather have cold weather than hot because we can bundle up or find somewhere to warm up in the cold, but you can't take anything more off when you're down to your skin when it's hot.
Too funny! I’m from Michigan. I’ve always been jealous of people who live where there are palm trees and oceans, or desert mountains. If I haven’t moved by now, it’s not going to happen. I sympathize with you!
My family is originally from the east coast. My grandma moved to Minnesota almost 40 years ago, thus so did everyone else in my immediate family. Born and raised Minnesotan 🤣.
Try Edmonton. We had -56F last January and -85F windchill at the airport. Love this city tho. Tomorrow it's going to be -6F and I'll go hiking, you learn to enjoy winter.
LOL! The guy in shorts is how I feel about Alaskans who show up here in the winter. I’m bundled up at 40 degrees F and they’re talking about being too hot!
funny similar happened to me in portugal, coming from brazil, they all treating 27C as if it was a VERY hot summer sweating their asses, and im like, this is refreshing coming from 38,40C daily lol.
To me, 40 F is warm only if the summer was in the 60's (like it was this year) and fall already saw the -#'s. Otherwise, going from 80°F to 40 it does feel like it's freezing.
As a native Midwesterner, I adore the glorious days of crisp, sunny -20° when when everything is covered in snow and gleams like a giant diamond in the sun! 🥰 The air is freezing cold but the sun is so warm that the icicles drip drop all day. That bright sun sets early but casts a pink, orange and purple sky against the white of the snow. The soundtrack to it all is the rhythmic crunch, crunch, crunch underfoot.
I always wondered how the life of people living in Minnesota was. I live in Northen Virginia and this cold is enough for me (originally from Mexico). I also dream moving to Florida 😂😂😂.
Im in Minnesota and i can confirm that the winters are gruesome but so are the summers because the humidity in as high as it could be and you start sweating bullets
@Micah-w3x …and the mosquitoes! 🦟 When I lived there, we used to joke that they were the Minnesota State Bird! 🤣 Of course I live outside of Atlanta now where the humidity is worse and we have GIANT flying roaches! Things are tough all over, lol.
@bbqutie17 😂 haha, yeah there no joke I once got 4 giant ones on my head my mom took me to the doctor just to make sure I didn't get a concussion and I was just acting like they were bug bites 😂
Buddy, at least it’s nice there in summer. Here in Missouri it’s freezing in the winter and scorching hot in the summer. There’s only like 6 weeks a year it’s nice out.
Northern Missouri? I live in Illinois and my sister lived in COMO - seems to always run 10-15 degrees warmer. Winters were very tolerable. But muggy hot in the summer for sure!
I don’t want to sound negative, but have you been to MN in July or August??? It always 80s or 90s plus humidity Edit: don’t forget the gosh darn misquotes
I like Spring and Autumn but i prefer it to be a little too cold then too hot. I dont do well in heat. I take a medication that makes me VERY warm and i have heat flashes and sweat if its over 65⁰F. Pennsylvania is just right imo. I don't like the darkness in Winter though. It brings on depression. 😞
We also have 1° right now. Celsius ;) Thankful for being a middle European. ..by the way, did you know (and can you believe it?) that almost all of the US is further south (closer to the equator) than England 🤣
I knew that but it still blows my mind. Being surrounded by water sure moderates the temperature. Speaking of Minnesota, it's also crazy how England is about the size of Minnesota if I recall correctly, though much more populated of course.
I live in a frigid part of rural new york, and it’s usually in the single digits during fall and some parts of spring and well into the negatives during winter. It’s a small town (2-3k residents and around 300 square miles, 80% is farmland though) and most events during the winter are actually “water parties”, which are actually not water-related at all and are just a big hang-out held in the high school’s gym with the heat cranked up. You usually bring in your fishing chair and a snack and sit with some buddies and talk where it’s warm. Heaters and heating systems are unusual in my town, so it’s usually freezing inside. My house has a portable heater in it so i’m all set, but i needed to buy it online and it took like a week to ship it. So, usually most people just go to water parties. They’re actually called that (i found this out way too late) because they used to hold these parties in the school’s POOL, and heat it up and then everybody would take a swim and hang out. They stopped because, wouldn’t you know, being wet in subzero temperatures isn’t healthy. The name stuck so yeah. Guess your state isn’t so different from mine 😭
Sounds like Alberta Canada. 🤣🤣🤣🥶🥶🥶 1 degree is actually considered warm so It’s even worse here.❄️❄️❄️☃️⛄️⛄️ We could have -30 to -50 degrees Celcius here.
Why does he have a garage large enough for his vehicle but not use it? Some of us don't have a garage. So that would make sense to have to deal with snow, I know it sucks all year round.
@ Yeah. It’s them California taxes m8. Just absolutely sky high. You have to be rich &/or a celebrity to live there unless you tough it out through one of the seedier or sketchy neighborhoods.
@@MarvelParsons700 The areas surrounding L.A. are still comparatively affordable though, so a lot of people live outside the city and commute in for the higher paying jobs. From my understanding NYC doesn't have anywhere near as many commuter suburbs, meaning more people are forced to pay in-city rents.
I live in tropical north Queensland, Australia, and my house/land is up on a small hill and overlooks the ocean. I have a small pier at the bottom where I can launch my two boats into the estuary and go fishing out on the great barrier reef. Our winters are horrible at 25 deg C / 77 deg F, and we keep a hoodie in the cupboard just in case. In winter, we see the whales migrating south from our kitchen window/large pool deck. I keep a ten inch telescope permanently mounted on the back undercover entertaining area so that the children can watch the whales breaching as they head south Our summers are around 29 d C / 85 deg F, although the humidity goes up. Because of our latitude, we get around 12 hours of sunlight (give or take an hour) all year round. Yes, it's pretty good and why we moved here as my wife got sick of the "winters". Our "big box stores" consist of fishing and hardware outlets. If you've "made it" in town, you own a large shed to put all your "toys" in and drive a RAM 2500 as a medium towing/tax write-off vehicle. Life is good. Just watch out for the cyclones....lol
Meanwhile in tropical Singapore we Instagram ourselves in down jackets when the mercury dipped to 23°C/ ~73°F (during the monsoon season in Jan when there were more thunderstorms)
@geddon436 Very popular for small business owners. It is seen as a "flex" as they start at $150k AUD for the 1500. However, ballers go for the 2500 model with custom matching options, i.e., paint matched bull bars, flood lights, etc. Due to the roads and weather, you won't see lowered sports cars e.g. lamb's or Aston Martins. It's all about big trucks and bigger sheds.
St Petersburg Russia is the same. Though we prefer to take advantage of delivery. One can order almost everything. It is delivered within very short period of time. From 10 min to 2 hours if we talk about groceries and pharmacy. I leave the house for work, restaurant, spa and gym in winter.
My grandparents chose this place to live 😭 seriously hilarious. I feel the same way except im in Northern California and dying to get away from the 6 month summers 😂

@seyodys we adapt to the climate we grow up in and it's hard to regulate our internal temperatures to survive in a different environment. Polar bears can't survive in the tropics.
I do like vacationing to warmer areas during the winter, because it does get brutally cold. Currently we are at 20° during the day and at night -4° (sun sets by 4:30/5:00pm) with wind gusts at 40-50 mph. A sunny 50° would feel like summer right now.
I also missed cold winters while living in Louisiana. I’m rather have a long snowy winter.
Similar in Colorado, just add 60 mph wind gusts, *STEEP* mile-long driveways, change Target to REI, hockey to skiing, and Florida to ….nowhere (we *love* our winters). 😊
I grew up in Colorado. Snow can be fun to play in. Not fun to live in. I’ve lived in Arizona for 20 years now. Yes, summer is miserable but at least I don’t have to shovel the sunshine off my car.
A big part of europe has to deal with that too. Snowy winters are the best, just not when you have to go to work by car 😅.
Like Sweden in all aspect. Never gonna understand why so many swedes that emigrated to America chose Minnesota of all the places. Nothing against Minnesota but swedes could just stayed at home with their relatives. Maybe they just hated their family so much that a life-dangerous trip over the Atlantic Ocean was worth it. 🤔
😝
More bizarre: Somalis have settled in Minnesota (not Arizona), and up here in freezing cold cities like Ottawa and Edmonton 🇨🇦

My friend is getting married in Minnesota in February…I’m still reeling over the fact that I will have to attend a February wedding in MINNESOTA. 😫 He’s from Montana though so I shouldn’t be so surprised. 😂

We do not care, pipe down kanuck
thats true, usually i wear crop tops in the winter

50% of Canadians live further south than the Twin Cities. True statement
I'm from central Romania, 28 years old and I recall harsh winters(for us) back in my childhood. We didn't get a white Christmas for a while now, I day dream of myself living in a place like Minnesota to enjoy snow, frozen lakes and rivers. Also, dry winters screw up the soil and crops here
Plants suffer in any place.
yeah it literally just rains nonstop
Stai să mă gândesc un pic... Brașov?
@@ZamfiraBarna Alba
Unfortunately, we haven't had a real winter in years now. The snow is already melting rn, and this year we had at most 4 inches of snow where I am. I could deal with Florida sinking into the sea, but climate change took away my snow, and nothing hurts more.
Bro as Russian from cold city 🏙️ I’m agree with you 💯. Totally same hahaha
You don't have long driveways.
I agree with you and not I am agree with you
For a person who lives in Minnesota like me this is so true
San Diego resident here. Thanks for reminding me how much I love living here. Paying $3k in rent is worth every damn dollar to not have to shovel my car out of snow every morning for 7 months. Ya'll can keep it.
7 months? Are you slow? Yeah.
@@daija731 he is living in Cali! Your question was completely rhetorical!
$3,000 a month for rent is outrageous. Most mortgages are less than that.

Unless you're Somalian.
Why is this kinda relatable 😂
Minnesota is always rated in the top 10 places in the U.S. to live, regardless of the weather, so it's not so bad. I'm from MN, but I lived in South FL for 8 years and would NEVER live anywhere in the south again. It was miserable with the heat and humidity. It was disgusting arriving to work every day covered in sweat, or going outside at any given time most of the year. I've never complained about tte weather here since moving back. It's a culture. I like the calmness and beauty of winter, and I LOVE not sweating. Very funny video though! The mecca of MN - Target 🤣. It's definitely MY mecca!
I grew up in Daytona Beach and after traveling around the country, I settled in Minneapolis. I love it here and I learned to love the winters for the reasons you gave.
P.S. I would much rather have cold weather than hot because we can bundle up or find somewhere to warm up in the cold, but you can't take anything more off when you're down to your skin when it's hot.
@@susanmercurio1060
You guys are crazy.
@@susanmercurio1060 EXACTLY. You can always warm up! I'm glad you found your place here 😊
I live in the Twin Cities and I agree with you. I have a buddy that moved to Florida and I would not trade places with him.

This comment section is far better than expected! 🔥 GREAT SHORT!!!! 👏🏼
Same here in Alberta, Canada:)!
You just read my fucking mind

It's way worse in Alberta. This year anything above -10 is warm
@DavidKowalczyk-ni9jy dang! It's been in the high 50s F this past week in Colorado

Too funny! I’m from Michigan. I’ve always been jealous of people who live where there are palm trees and oceans, or desert mountains. If I haven’t moved by now, it’s not going to happen. I sympathize with you!
My family is originally from the east coast. My grandma moved to Minnesota almost 40 years ago, thus so did everyone else in my immediate family. Born and raised Minnesotan 🤣.
"At 3:30 its pitch black"
Me an alaskan: wow very late pitch black, its usually noon or never for me
Loving the commitment to parking next to the pile of shovelled snow at Target just so that they could recover the car! 😅 💕 ❄️
Albertan here. Same as us, but change Target to Timmies, and Florida to Victoria
Try Edmonton. We had -56F last January and -85F windchill at the airport. Love this city tho. Tomorrow it's going to be -6F and I'll go hiking, you learn to enjoy winter.
Fellow Minnesotan here. I have been having this dilemma for 35 years now lol!
This is actually so correct. Minnesota is brutal.
MinneSNOWta - The Land of 10,000 Flakes
LOL! The guy in shorts is how I feel about Alaskans who show up here in the winter. I’m bundled up at 40 degrees F and they’re talking about being too hot!
funny similar happened to me in portugal, coming from brazil, they all treating 27C as if it was a VERY hot summer sweating their asses, and im like, this is refreshing coming from 38,40C daily lol.
To me, 40 F is warm only if the summer was in the 60's (like it was this year) and fall already saw the -#'s.
Otherwise, going from 80°F to 40 it does feel like it's freezing.
As a native Midwesterner, I adore the glorious days of crisp, sunny -20° when when everything is covered in snow and gleams like a giant diamond in the sun! 🥰 The air is freezing cold but the sun is so warm that the icicles drip drop all day. That bright sun sets early but casts a pink, orange and purple sky against the white of the snow. The soundtrack to it all is the rhythmic crunch, crunch, crunch underfoot.
I always wondered how the life of people living in Minnesota was. I live in Northen Virginia and this cold is enough for me (originally from Mexico). I also dream moving to Florida 😂😂😂.
Im in Minnesota and i can confirm that the winters are gruesome but so are the summers because the humidity in as high as it could be and you start sweating bullets
@Micah-w3x …and the mosquitoes! 🦟 When I lived there, we used to joke that they were the Minnesota State Bird! 🤣 Of course I live outside of Atlanta now where the humidity is worse and we have GIANT flying roaches! Things are tough all over, lol.
@bbqutie17 😂 haha, yeah there no joke I once got 4 giant ones on my head my mom took me to the doctor just to make sure I didn't get a concussion and I was just acting like they were bug bites 😂
Buddy, at least it’s nice there in summer. Here in Missouri it’s freezing in the winter and scorching hot in the summer. There’s only like 6 weeks a year it’s nice out.
Northern Missouri? I live in Illinois and my sister lived in COMO - seems to always run 10-15 degrees warmer. Winters were very tolerable. But muggy hot in the summer for sure!
I don’t want to sound negative, but have you been to MN in July or August??? It always 80s or 90s plus humidity
Edit: don’t forget the gosh darn misquotes
Lived in both states and that is accurate 😂

Come to Houston. We have beaches, margaritas, tacos, BBQ, and flip flops 9 months out of the year
Beaches? Galveston is no beach with all the nearby chemical plants. Padre Island is 100 miles of beach.
That’s how I felt growing up in Montana. I cried every year and it’s nothing like what you have to go through. Sorry dude.
I like Spring and Autumn but i prefer it to be a little too cold then too hot. I dont do well in heat. I take a medication that makes me VERY warm and i have heat flashes and sweat if its over 65⁰F. Pennsylvania is just right imo. I don't like the darkness in Winter though. It brings on depression. 😞
Same here from New Jersey. So please it 60 degree right now. It not going last, but im enjoying it.😂
Coming form a Minnesotan, this is accurate ESPECIALLY the T-shirt guy.

..but I myself had to check maps again to see that I wasn't wrong, because it's so hard to believe.
The gulf stream makes the climates comparable
@@gaijillahimself908
Yup. I just hope it doesn't ever break or weaken significantly, because much of Europe would be hardly habitable.
I knew that but it still blows my mind. Being surrounded by water sure moderates the temperature. Speaking of Minnesota, it's also crazy how England is about the size of Minnesota if I recall correctly, though much more populated of course.
As a Minnesotan the least accurate thing is not mentioning how the winter sometimes takes breaks from being winter.
Exactly people here Minnesota just like to complain about the weather, but when spring comes we forget all about it.
I live in a frigid part of rural new york, and it’s usually in the single digits during fall and some parts of spring and well into the negatives during winter. It’s a small town (2-3k residents and around 300 square miles, 80% is farmland though) and most events during the winter are actually “water parties”, which are actually not water-related at all and are just a big hang-out held in the high school’s gym with the heat cranked up. You usually bring in your fishing chair and a snack and sit with some buddies and talk where it’s warm. Heaters and heating systems are unusual in my town, so it’s usually freezing inside. My house has a portable heater in it so i’m all set, but i needed to buy it online and it took like a week to ship it. So, usually most people just go to water parties. They’re actually called that (i found this out way too late) because they used to hold these parties in the school’s POOL, and heat it up and then everybody would take a swim and hang out. They stopped because, wouldn’t you know, being wet in subzero temperatures isn’t healthy. The name stuck so yeah. Guess your state isn’t so different from mine 😭
I used to truck out there when I drove for a company out of Waterloo, IA. I miss it at times. The restaurants give you generous portions. 👍🏾👍🏾
Sounds like Alberta Canada. 🤣🤣🤣🥶🥶🥶 1 degree is actually considered warm so It’s even worse here.❄️❄️❄️☃️⛄️⛄️ We could have -30 to -50 degrees Celcius here.
I'm from Minnesota and I really enjoyed visiting Banff the summer before last, but yeah I wouldn't want to visit or live there in the winter.
Wow, much respect guys. I could never, and I didn't grow up in a place so cold as that.
At 10am I brush off the car and at 11am I get in the car 😢😢 relatable
Why does he have a garage large enough for his vehicle but not use it? Some of us don't have a garage. So that would make sense to have to deal with snow, I know it sucks all year round.
As a Minnesota, this is super true
You're making me feel very grateful, for the fact that I live in Ontario, Canada. 😊❤

And that’s why Dr. Shaboinky lives in LA! That, and because he can actually afford it 😎
It's strange. The media says NY is an expensive place to live, but people's actual experience is Los Angeles is more expensive.
@ Yeah. It’s them California taxes m8. Just absolutely sky high. You have to be rich &/or a celebrity to live there unless you tough it out through one of the seedier or sketchy neighborhoods.
@@MarvelParsons700 The areas surrounding L.A. are still comparatively affordable though, so a lot of people live outside the city and commute in for the higher paying jobs. From my understanding NYC doesn't have anywhere near as many commuter suburbs, meaning more people are forced to pay in-city rents.
@@NormanDimmick What do you mean by
"areas surrounding Los Angeles are still comparatively affordable"?
From Minnesota, this is correct. Thanks for reading my comment! Sorry if it’s to long.
Except 3:30 darkness is extreme. It's 430. At least in the cities
I live in tropical north Queensland, Australia, and my house/land is up on a small hill and overlooks the ocean. I have a small pier at the bottom where I can launch my two boats into the estuary and go fishing out on the great barrier reef.
Our winters are horrible at 25 deg C / 77 deg F, and we keep a hoodie in the cupboard just in case. In winter, we see the whales migrating south from our kitchen window/large pool deck. I keep a ten inch telescope permanently mounted on the back undercover entertaining area so that the children can watch the whales breaching as they head south
Our summers are around 29 d C / 85 deg F, although the humidity goes up.
Because of our latitude, we get around 12 hours of sunlight (give or take an hour) all year round.
Yes, it's pretty good and why we moved here as my wife got sick of the "winters".
Our "big box stores" consist of fishing and hardware outlets.
If you've "made it" in town, you own a large shed to put all your "toys" in and drive a RAM 2500 as a medium towing/tax write-off vehicle.

how popular are the Dodge rams in Oz?
Meanwhile in tropical Singapore we Instagram ourselves in down jackets when the mercury dipped to 23°C/ ~73°F (during the monsoon season in Jan when there were more thunderstorms)
@geddon436 Very popular for small business owners. It is seen as a "flex" as they start at $150k AUD for the 1500. However, ballers go for the 2500 model with custom matching options, i.e., paint matched bull bars, flood lights, etc.
Due to the roads and weather, you won't see lowered sports cars e.g. lamb's or Aston Martins. It's all about big trucks and bigger sheds.
This is a perfect description of all of the mid west during winter

@@Ice.muffinWe don't even have any snow this year. Last year we only had about 10 inches in April.
St Petersburg Russia is the same. Though we prefer to take advantage of delivery. One can order almost everything. It is delivered within very short period of time. From 10 min to 2 hours if we talk about groceries and pharmacy. I leave the house for work, restaurant, spa and gym in winter.
