"Nice", is subjective.

This storm is a repeat of a pattern we've seen a dozen times, in the last six months. Those storms dropped from one, to as much as four, inches of rain in a day or two. This time it was cold, and I would assume if the pattern continues, it will be cold for future storms... at least for the next few months. So, unless the weather pattern changes, we'll be up to our poopers in snow, by spring.
