If, as your name implies, you're from the northeastern US, my personal recommendation would be to hunker down until spring arrives (if it does). Or come out to the West Coast where we seem to have skipped winter. In the NW Oregon mountains, anything below 5,000 feet (and going higher, with 70* F temps forecast in the lowlands this weekend) is snow-free, and no weather changes are forseen for several weeks. You are getting our winter as well as yours!
