Depends on what your doing. City folks like warm weather unless they ski but on the farm winter is time to “cut wood”. Next winter’s firewood and pulpwood / lumber, at least back in the day when the price was better.
For working in the woods 20F is good because the ground stays frozen hard, otherwise the equipment will get mired in the mud. Also at 20F the snow won’t melt on boots and clothes so you stay dry.
When it warms up in spring it’s “mud season”. The surface melts but underneath still frozen so no place for the water to go. All the unpaved driveways turn to mud.
It’s 35 F (1.7C) here now and this is what my driveway looks like now.
