I am not sure this is what the author had in mind when he wrote \u201cin the bleak mid-winter\u201d (in fact the \u201csnow on snow\u201d line convinces me it is not), but this is the bleak mid-winter we are having in southern Maine. While I can no longer say I am a fan of cold temperatures…if we are going to have cold, even the relatively mild temperatures we have had in January, I would prefer to have a snowy landscape under blue skies…thank you very much. Of course my weather preferences hardly matter in the big scheme of things. \ud83d\ude42 There is still a bleak beauty in this landscape…though more like the bleakness of early spring than mid-winter.
