The Great NYC Winter Heist
Remember those winters when you’d wake up to a world blanketed in white, and the only sound was the satisfying crunch of snow under your boots? Yeah, me neither. Because apparently, winter decided to take a permanent vacation in Florida.
Tip: Pause, then continue with fresh focus.
I mean, come on, NYC! We deserve a proper winter. We deserve to build snowmen that don’t immediately turn into puddle people. We deserve to slip and slide our way to work and blame it on Elsa. But no, instead, we get teased with the occasional snowflake and then BAM! It's 50 degrees again.

Is Global Warming to Blame?
Now, before we start blaming climate change for everything from our love lives to the price of avocado toast, let's be clear: scientists are pretty sure it's a real thing. And it's probably not helping our winter situation. But let's not forget that NYC winters used to be brutal. People survived, and they even wore hats that looked like they belonged on a squirrel. So, maybe it's just nature’s way of saying, "Hey, let's give these city folk a break."
QuickTip: Scroll back if you lose track.
So, When Will It Actually Be Cold?
The short answer is: who knows? Mother Nature is a fickle mistress. But if history is any indication, we can probably expect some real cold weather around January or February. So, stock up on your hot chocolate, fuzzy socks, and questionable holiday sweaters. And remember, if you see a groundhog shadow, don’t get too excited. That little rodent is probably just as confused as we are.
