Less than a day, ideally. After it stops snowing I grow disgusted at the sight of what remains.

One day is enough for me. I'm interested in seeing a covering of snow fall a few times in winter, but after a few hours all the sidewalks/pavements are just very icy and slippery making it treacherous to walk anywhere. Thankfully this isn't so much of a problem here as when I lived in Buxton. We had our first real lying snow in 3 years a few days ago, and while nice to see at first, I was glad it went after little more than 24 hours.

> 30 days with some melting breaks for variety and to stop the depth from getting too crazy; stale snow doesn't look stale if it gets snowed on

3 months or so would be good for me, with an occasional thaw. That's long enough to feel like I had a proper winter without being so long that it gets annoying or depressing. To add to this, I would say late November/early December to early March would be a pretty good standard time frame for snow on the ground for me. |

That is ideal for me as well, with patchy/discontinuous from late October until late November. Then full out thaw at the end of march starting spring in April |

Iād prefer a snowpack between early December and early March, but periodic thaws are fine too.

Less then a day. I prefer the snow pack up in the mountains, rarely on low lands set up. Kind of like Vancouver, or parts of New Zealand.

There is no snow or winter in my ideal climate.

Should never snow. After spending my first 18 years in Shitchester, NY, I never want to see snow again

1-2 snow days is enough and would seem like a novelty.

If it absolutely has to snow, no more than a couple of days This. Preferably, no snow at all. If it absolutely has to snow, it's cool to look at while it's falling and for the first day or two afterwards, but the sooner it's gone the better. In a continental climate like here, my expectation that I have to settle for is that the snowpack should be gone by March 1, with some thawing out a few times during the winter months themselves. |

About 30 plus days of snow (Around 70 days in total) but with partial falls.
Snowpack in my ideal climate would develop around Mid-December when temperatures on average are below freezing for the full 24 hours and periods and mild spells are less potent. By Christmas a snowpack has developed and certainly by January there is no chance of a full thaw even during the mild spells (temps can swing up to 7c) but some winter full thaws can occur... January and February pretty much have a solid snowpack. The core snowpack season (100% no full thaw) is between 2nd January to 10th February

So I've had snow on the ground for 2 straight weeks at this point, and I'll easily hit 30 days this winter since we are going into a polar plunge.
