<p>I've heard that the weather is really depressing and that it's not so much the snow in the winter but the rain. Is that true? Never really lived up north so I would like some perspective of what I could potentially be facing.</p>
<p>The weather varies so it’s hard to say from one year to the next. This year has been real mild with hardly any snowfall and warmer than average temperatures. I would make sure you have a good waterproof jacket and decent winter coat though if you end up there.</p>
