Where do I even start? 
First of all, I would probably rate this winter 8/10, with the rating based more on excitement and a lot happening rather than enjoyment.
Now let me reminisce on the winter of 2009-2010 for Dallas, TX:
1) Record snowfall on Christmas Eve, leaving Dallas with its VERY first white Christmas the next day.
2) Other miscellaneous small amounts of snowfall that broke old records of trace amounts of snowfall on December 29 and 30.
3) The ARCTIC BLAST in early January, bringing temperatures as low as 13 degrees (No record lows were set, but it was still very cold.
)
4) A RECORD SNOWSTORM in February, breaking records for most snow in a day, most snow in a 24-hour period, etc... (So many records were set that day.)
5) Although this was technically in spring, more snowfall in late march, with totals ranging anywhere from 1 to 8 inches. (A record snowfall total was set on March 21.)
Yes, this winter has definetely been an exciting one for Dallas and certainly one for the record books.

The high was in the upper-60s; tomorrow's forecast calls for mid-70s. 
On March 20, a record was broken for the most snowfall on that date.
Hopefully tomorrow will be in the mid-60s as forecasted. 
Is that a record for Norfolk, Martin? 
Sure sounds like it. 
We need to petition to put that on weather.com or something. 
Thunderstorms, followed by snow.
