The worst "season" in New England

It's right now, that time after all the leaves have fallen, it's become bitterly cold, and there's no snow on the ground.

"Bleak" is the word that comes to mind.

I thought of this while driving this morning and seeing a few stray snowflakes in the air and that made me think that all it would take was a thick carpet of fresh snow to make this one of the best seasons of the year.

Agreed. Bleak and desolate are what come to mind, and not in a good way (as in the Arizona desert). And this dispiriting, melancholic landscape is not helping me with this bout of depression I unexpectedly found myself in today.
