GR, I believe this is at least partly to blame (maybe mostly).  In addition to the virus living longer, the colder weather has pushed people to be indoors more, where the virus spreads better.  I have a feeling that in the summer, when there was also an outbreak focused mostly along the sunbelt, people went indoors to escape the heat; now they are going indoors to escape the cold, and the worst-affected areas are generally in the upper midwest, where the weather is least hospital in late fall.
