We also don't get the bone chilling cold we used to 30 yeatrs ago anymore.

This past fall / winter begs to differ. But I agree with what you guys are saying about winter vs. spring

I didn’t think winter was cold. Just more snow than the last few years combined and now it’s plus 40 again June 7 making it feel tropical rain Forrest like but with tornado warnings. That seems worse than October to me.

Shitty weather in May and June is also so much worse in this part of the world. It's humid and bone-chilling when cold. Or pouring rain. Weather in May-June is crazy volatile. Literally the time of year when all the storm chasers are hanging out in MB/SK and the Dakotas waiting for rotation.

Speaking as someone who has had involvement in spring and fall football my entire life. Fall is far more manageable.

Same here. You just have to grow up in the West to know spring sucks.

When was the last time it was as cold as the 1991 Grey Cup in November in Winnipeg? The temp on kickoff that day was minus 18 & the windchill was close to minis 30-35. Wityh climate change those te,ps are as prevalent as decasdes past. Not to say that we won't ever be as cold but it will be the exception & not the norm.
