Default This winter was PAINFUL

With tonight being the last (hopefully! lol) temp below freezing for the winter, I want to say it was been HORRIBLE. In another thread (Spring is here), I stated it has been twice as long than normal, but I decided to compile data and find out. To my surprise, it has been nearly 3 winters in one... wow

Winter 2009/10 first & last day under 32 - Dec 6th to Dec 10th (4 days total)
Winter 2008/09 first & last day under 32 - Dec 17 - Feb 11 (56 days total)
Winter 2007/08 first & last day under 32 - Dec 9 - Jan 1 (23 days total)
Winter 2006/07 first & last day under 32 - Nov 29 - Jan 23 (55 days total)

Average - 34.5 days.

And now 2010/11 first & last day under 32 - Nov 24 - Feb 27

95 days. or 2.75 times longer than average. Good riddance winter of 2010!!!!
