What’s Minnesota like? I grew up in snow but now reside in the southern heat and I don’t like it.

I like living in MN. Yes, the winters can get long. But during the winter, it's not necessarily snowy all the time. Yes we get storms. But for most of the time, it's too cold to get snow. Mainly sunny days that look nice out, but are actually -20 F - 20 F. Sometimes snow, sometimes gloomy and cold. January average temp is 10 F.

Summer, we do have humidity and heat.

We have more snow and northern, humid heat. Summer average is 80s but peaks over 100 few times a year. So humid you can shower on Monday and still be wet behind the ears come Tuesday. And the mosquito is the state bird.

Kinda. It's not snowy in terms of sheer snow fall like the West Coast or the Rockies, but it's cold and once the snow falls, it's there till spring.
