Yes. The climate in the Peoples Democratic Republic of Minnesota is challenging. The current iteration of the off season is actually what I remember the winters of the late 60's and 70's to have been. The trick back then was to put a tennis ball on the car radio antenna so you could be seen by other traffic over the drifts and snow banks at intersections. It is like that again this year.
Much of the climate change noise probably rises from the series of warmer than normal winters we have had the past few years. as welcome as they were, it spawned complacency.
My bi...complaining rises out of having just returned from five weeks in the southern tropics. I'm suffering 'climate shock'. like the other snow birds, I find a way to take a break from winter. This winter it just wasn't over yet.
