I Second that.
Back when I was a kid in 90s Ottawa normally the first snowfall would come before Halloween, and last well into April, and I can remember two seperate occasions when we got a bit of snow in early May. Now we rarely see snow until around Christmas time, generally melts earlier too, and we get more warm spells of mid spring weather in January.
Yet people still make that joke every time we get a cold snap and I want to shake them and yell "Do you remember your childhood at all?"
