Last winter, Delawareans hardly saw any snow, which was a major bummer for anyone looking to build a snowman and a delight for those of us with long driveways. This winter is sure to be a little different, as the state is expected to have a snowy, cold, and wet season! According to the Farmers Almanac, we can look for more snow than usual, with typical chilly temperatures. Bust out that snowblower!
