Clunker months are going to happen even in an A/B level winter.
IMO It’s all about the seasonal snow fall total at the end.
Solid B for me in the NW burbs with the memorable NOV.
Here’s a hypothetical, what if we received the ~30” at ORD in 3 even 10” shots or 4-7.5” storms?
Would that change any one’s grades?
