No it's not too cold but the lack of sun is driving me nuts. Has the weather the past 3 weeks bothered you? I need the sun and am flying out of here to sunny Arizona.. I can't take it anymore going for a week .

I have never seen it like this with such lack of sun any winter. I'd rather freezing cold with sun then this warm dreary winter..

Compared to most winters here, this is pretty tame.

No it's not cold but this winter has lack of sun. You are not getting it. The lack of sun is horrible along with the constant rain.

It's been a wet but mild winter. Better than tons of snow.

I guess some humans don't need the sun . Some humans hate that big yellow circle in the sky that's why they live in England or Seattle. Thanks for informing me . The sun is not necessary for humans .

I wish there was more sunshine, but this winter is much better than those snowpocalypse and cyclone bomb winters.

I need the sun at least 250 days of the year. I'll take big storm in February any day with some sun. I need to get a light for indoor use for seasonal affective disorder

Doesn't really bother me, though I'm used to working indoors 5 days a week during sunlight hours this time of year.

Snow and cold are much harder for me. Shoveling out a parking space can be challenging with my lung damage, so I am happy any year where we have few 4+ inch storms!

Boston and Worcester are both around 200 days of sunshine/year. Springfield is around 210.
No matter where you are in MA you are way below 250 days.

With increased in temperatures there is an increase in air humidity and precipitation. In the future we are probably going to have more clouds and rain, on average.
