So what does the weather do after the blizzards end in 41?

And thank God they ended when they did. Was feeling pretty good about my Barbarossa campaign until the blizzards hit and the Soviets blew a very large whole in my line. By turn 38 they were almost back to Kiev!! The counterattack has begun though, now that the normal winter weather has set in.

So I was curious how long until the mud hits again, or, please no, the blizzards flair back up.

* On odd day turns from May 1 to June 19, the weather in the Soviet Zones is Clear, on even
day turns the weather is Mud.

Key:
C = Clear
M = Mud
S = Snow
B = Blizzard

From the manual page 289

In March you get 3 turns of Snow where combat strength recovers dramatically and allows you to re-take lost territory, then 12 turns of Mud.
