Well, we started snow in November, and ended in early-mid May. So that's a max of 6.5 months for North Idaho...I think the OP went to hyperbole to make a point...or share frustration?
In SE Idaho the snow started the last weekend in September. We had a little bit of snow in June. That's 10 calendar months straight of atleast one day of snow.
Even thought the weather is sometimes frustrating, I personally like the cooler weather over the dry summer heat.
I'm LOVING all the snow...flooding isn't so cool, though lol!
I always laugh when people from drier climates talk about flooding. I mean no offense by this but you don't have the foggiest idea about flooding until you live in the midwest

I'm pretty sure we know what flooding is in Idaho. I've lived in the Midwest. Your flash floods are nothing compared to 80 billion gallons of water behind a dam that fails.

I often see many people on here saying they want to move to Idaho from California. After this current winter, 10 months straight of snow, I'm thinking the California weather is starting to sound a little more tempting!
Really. 10 months of snow seems okay to me because summer is a nightmare where I live.
