Newfoundland spring

I'm sure people in other countries south of us (actually with exception of Russia, All are south of us)
think that we have a long harsh winter that lasts seemingly forever. In some places yes, but in Newfoundland we have a relatively short winter, but a spring that practically skips summer and turns into fall. See the link below and its what I can expect for practically 2 months straight, possibly 3.
