Mild but Cold Winter

I was just reading the newspaper this morning. They were saying that we could have a very cold winter this year. However, there is supposed to be less snow than last year. We really got it last year so I would be happy for less. It is hard to get to your appointments when it snows a lot. It takes awhile for the roads to be cleared and you don't want to go in blowing snow. I am not looking forward to winter this year for the first time that I can imagine. I always said in summer you can't dress cool enough but in winter you can put on all the clothes you want and stay warm no matter how cold it gets. But now I am not looking forward to the snow and ice and cold.
