[QUOTE="LoriKTM, post: 160053, member: 18495"] Well, up until last October I had lived my whole life in Illinois. I've now lived through one winter in upstate NY, so I can give a little comparison. I agree with Bob, winters in IL seemed a lot worse when I was a kid. I remember the blizzard of '79, though. We went sledding on HUGE piles of plowed up snow. :) I think IL winters are colder, on average, than NY. The reading on our thermometer here never dipped below zero this past winter, on even the coldest mornings. (It can and will drop to below zero, according to the long time locals). Seeing -10 to -15 below was a fairly common occurrence out in the far western 'burbs of Chicago winters. We did, however, get a severe dumping of 20"+ of snow in March up here. I guess this is pretty common for late winter here in NY. Made for some good late-season skiing, though. :D All depends on what you like/ don't like. If you are prepared, it makes it that much easier to tolerate. Side note: Bob, having lived in IL my whole life (family, friends, etc.) it was very difficult to move out of state, but I'm glad I did. Nice knowing there is a world outside N. Illinois. ;) [/QUOTE]
