    I consider myself to have a lot of weather knowledge...but i dont forecast. Definitely respect those who do so, particularly without much bias. I have a preference, not a bias. I worry that preference would create a bias if I tried to forecast, so I dont. Say its mid winter and every model shows warmth the next two weeks. I know its going to be warm, so instead of trying to find something to say all models will be wrong, or try to find a reason why it will be warm when i thought it would be cold.....no...im going to deal with it, see if we will squeeze snow out of it, and look beyind the warm spell.

    Exactly. Sometimes the difference between anamolies and absolutes get lost in the translation. A low snow winter in detroit is still snowier than a snowy winter in Albuquerque.

    This is whats interesting to me. I fully expect a milder than avg winter here, as ive said multiple times. However, the fact that a few models are showing cold, and even the milder models aren't anywhere near a furnace, is a red flag for those (we know who they are) who assume super nino means super furnace. Remember, these same models are all showing the strong/super nino, and nino climo is already in these models, are not showing blazing warmthm

    Exactly what I think of you. I typically don't name call though, something you do all the time to people in here.

    Plenty of snowstorms in the lakes in 72-73 & 15-16. 23-24 was the one month winter. Nearly winters entire load blown in January.

    Enso state is irrelevant to what your yearly analogs are. Whatever is warmest and least snowy on the east coast. I dont even live there and I know that.

    There really cant possibly be anyone who's game is as clear as his.

    Lmao. This coming from the person who had to scour the internet and post tweets in Spanish and French last winter to desperately find something showing it wouldnt be cold in the east. Why would i wish cast 2009-10? I live in Michigan, not the Mid-Atlantic. It was an average winter here. Not bad, but sandwiched by 3 excellent winters it was unmemorable here. I just said the map mitchnick posted looked like that. Oh and who suggested cold? You can embed 8 tweets in one post so you fit your daily post limit, but no one else can share something without it meaning they suggest its what happens? Ive actually said multiple times i expect a milder than avg winter here. Again. Michigan. I dont need what you consider below avg or avg temps to get snow. Youre right about one thing though. Your meltdowns/tantrums will be absolutely comical if winter is not a record furnace or if the east gets a noreaster. Like heat miser accusing mother of liking snow miser best.

    Looks 2009-10ish. Interesting both jamstec and cansips are far from a warm winter.

    Very lucky that I will make it to July with hardly any heat this year!

    Ive heard that about Banff!

    Alaskas beauty was incredible. Highly recommend a visit. They had a very harsh winter so there was still lots of snow left on the higher mountains and I got to enjoy multiple feet drifts haha. Also saw a massive glacier up close. What a way to run summer.

    Forecasting a DJF average of milder than average is a no brainer for the northern tier of a strong Nino, but precip/snow is always a wildcard. As Chuck has pointed out, often the strong the el nino, the higher probability of a wetter outcome in areas like the Lakes where the generic El nino map would show dry.

    The scenario you describe (dry during the cold periods) was the big problem in 1982-83 here. I haven't looked up Colombus but in Detroit, still plenty of snow chances. Ironically in 1997-98 Feb was the really bad month here (the rest of winter was ok, including a snowy mid nov to mid dec) but Cincinnati got buried in Feb. All varies. 2015-16 finished just a bit below avg snow wise at Detroit but above avg snow a bit further north near @roardog.

    This is a good point. But even then, its not steady temps across the board. Its still colder in the mean in the north than the south. Which means blues in the south arent necessarily great for snow, but reds in the north arent prohibitive of snow either.
