At least we have not hit the sub zero temperatures yet. Those are always cold cold days and nights.I think we are in the North Pacific Oscillation Cycle, it comes about every now and then. The warm pacific waters push north, so we get warmer weather, and more rain. Still not looking forward to Feb. That is generally our coldest month, Last week of Jan and then Feb.

We do have a generator to keep the heat on, fortunately we rarely go for more than 5 hours with out power, but it can get cold real fast if you don't have a generator.
