    I think he meant that by mid to late november we will have an idea how december looks, not that whatever happens in november is a sign. In fact, most of the warm Decembers here this past decade have been preceded by Novembers that were near avg or colder than avg and snowier than avg.

    Same here. The 2020s are not nearly over, so cant count them as a complete decade. 1980s- 45.2" 1990s- 37.9" 2000s- 45.3" 2010s- 49.9" 2020s- 37.8"*

    The 1990s winters were NOT "much cooler". 1990s winters were warmer than winters of the 2000s or 2010s here. Detroit winters 1990s- 28.7 2000s- 27.8 2010s- 28.2 NYC winters 1990s- 36.4 2000s- 35.5 2010s- 36.1

    Im aware of all of that. Models always smooth things out. There will always be warmer areas....and colder areas. The Euro seasonal was too warm multiple times for the east the past handful of winters. Do i doubt that someone somewhere will have a +10 month? Not at all. To say that its going to be way warmer everywhere is the part I have issue with. Actually, im really more interested in snow. We all have tirelessly agreed it will be a mild winter, despite some troll comments implying the mysterious never-to-be-found posters calling for a cold winter....but these wild posts (not by you) that no one gets snow. Lol. I live in a state where the license plate says "water winter wonderland" and somehow el nino will take away all our snow

    Good work! Here's the noaa comparison.

    After huge busts the last 2 winters, this one could've been in the bag. Milder than avg winter, easy call with a strong nino. But thats not enough. Every seasonal forecast is now way too cool . Take the Euro for instance. It was way too warm in the east last winter. BUT in 2023-24 it wasnt warm enough, so just use that. In fact, let's just round up to +20° for everyone and no snow anywhere.
  7. michsnowfreak
    EXACTLY!!! And november was solidly colder than avg. February was the torch month of 97-98.

    This weekend with sunny skies, lows in the 30s, and highs in the low 50s (sat) to 60 (sun) will be absolute PRIMO Fall color viewing here. This is THE weekend.

    Its already not behaving the way normal strong Ninos typically do. Of course a few of the warminstas in the main forum whove melted down over the past 2 cold winters have already explained that once it comes time for the mild winter stuff, THEN it will behave like it should All jokes aside, I expect a milder than avg winter in the mean but that tells me absolutely nothing in terms of what happens day to day, week to week. There have been some huge snowstorms in ninos past, hopefully we see one this year. I do think we see some scenic wet snows; the past 2 winters were almost entirely powder here.

    Id take 1877-78 again. Nice Jan/Feb after a slow start. Never even knew there was enough documentation to confirm a 1790s el nino episode.

    What an upside down world where someone who knows nothing about how weather works gets a red tag, meanwhile much of the rest of this thread is filled with so much knowledge from people who simply are hobbyists.
  12. michsnowfreak
    Simply saying it's going to be a mild winter as everyone has thought for MONTHS now, or that it resembles a past year (97-98, which as @roardog says this year isnt following sensible weather-wise at all) is not a winter forecast. What @40/70 Benchmark does, thats a winter forecast.
  13. michsnowfreak
    I agree 100%. Ive thought of that everytime I hear 97-98 brought up followed by expectations that Dec will be the warmest and Feb the coldest month. That is NOT 97-98 lol. Why is no one else mentioning that??? It was one of the oddest duck Ninos in that regard, and no one says a word about that. For us, we know its going to snow. It always does. The more we salvage in Nov-Dec IMO will be the better chance for an ok snow season total by April. I also think theres no doubt we get some huge winter storms in the country. Will they hit us like in 1878 or 1992, or miss like in 1958 or 1983?
  14. michsnowfreak
    Any snow that falls is a trace. But the guesses were for first measurable snow. Not that im the the thread police or anything

    Detroit hit 87. Broke the daily record of 83. Technically its the warmest so late, beating 86 on Oct 15, 1897
