Usually, yes.
Fortunately or unfortunately, a couple of times in 2013 - specifically one of the March snowfalls - was from an easterly (IIRC it was more an ENE'ly) so it now gives me a sense of hope in what will 9 times out of 10 be a letdown.
I remember the fabled Jan 1987 well, too. Brass monkeys, but almost bone dry (a 10 min flurry was all we had to show for it)
