Sometimes you get lucky, and sometimes you end up in a blizzard like I did traveling to Boston back in February. I usually estimate a 15-20% chance that any December-February trip will see snow whenever I have to head back to MA in the winter. But hotel prices are definitely cheaper during those times.
