Winter down here really isn't much, esp. compared to what you're talking about. That "cold snap" we had last December where it didn't get above 20* for a week is about as bad as it gets, esp. these days. We're lucky if snow sticks around for a week, if we have a white Christmas, or if we get snow past the end of February.
It's nice most of the time to have relatively moderate weather, but the extreme stuff makes for such good stories. Like running the inaugeral Frederick Marathon in 4 inches of snow. At the end of March around here, that's extreme. :-)
