22-23 stands up pretty nicely to 60’s winters at least. Problem is, that’s now a once in a generation winter.

This winter is absolutely, frustratingly, baffling. One of my least favorite winters was the winter of 1991/92. We had some cold weather and snow at the end of October. The rest of the winter was very mild and very wet. However, that year was a record el Nino. This year, the tea leaves favored something cooler. Yet here we are. Where I live, we haven't had any widespread frost, this year. It seems to be house to house. That is even more unusual. Overall mild winters are not uncommon, but the lack of frost is concerning.
