Worst Winter Cities

http://www.almanac.com/content/worst-winter-weather-cities

The major cities listed below share some common traits to different degrees, no pun intended: cold average temperatures during the winter months, more days that stay below freezing, ample rain, and heavy snowfall.

Chicago, Illinois

The "Windy City" (which isn't actually that windy) has one of the coldest average temperatures and some of the heaviest snowfalls.

Cleveland, Ohio

Due to its location near Lake Erie, this city gets hard by lake-effect snow, winds, and subzero temperatures.

Boston, Massachusetts

Nor'easter storms translate to heavy rainfall, snow, and freezing temperatures.

Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Not only does this city rank high on snowfall and have low average winter temperatures, but it's also below freezing on your average winter day.
