Certainly don't understand this part of your theory. This was one of the most bitterly cold winters on record. It's why most of the snow storms had such light, fluffy snow. But like insulation, the trapped air spaces helped keep the ground insulated and allowed the earths heat from below to keep the frost line from going too deep.
