here in MI it drops to about 40 by the middle of october, somtimes snow by the end of october, always snow by the end of november
Geez, that's worse than up here in Toronto Canada. Folks are always praying for snow for Christmas but those prayers often go unanswered. Skiing/building season is generally from end of December to end of March. I get a real laugh seeing 'southerners' show up at the airport with skis and parkas in October.
Me, I just like it when it's cold enough to keep the runway hard enough that the local punks can't harm the runway with their ATVs.[:@]
