Yeah at this point I would like to revise to November 27th

I would toss any of the years that are <2.0 that just tries to soften the blow, all the super ninos except for one are bad bad here, and the one that isn't is still below normal 15-16. As for my comment about the background state in recent years, I'm talking the last 10 years, which had 1 above normal year, 3 near normal and 6 below normal including the last 4 years in a row. I get you want to shine up this winter some, but eventually you have to look at reality in front of you. The data is bad and we are basically wishing and hoping on luck and nothing else to get us something decent this year.

3 of the 4 last super ninos were 20-25" here and that included the 2 closest analogs, 82-83 and 97-98. So yes I would lean much below normal snowfall and above normal temps. It is going to take luck to get above those values especially with a background state of losing snow in general over the recent years. We had favorable enso setups and it didnt help us.

should be back for you by Sunday and here by Monday. next week looks pretty solid.

We are 1 off the record here, i fully expect us to break it and surpass the record of 83 before the end of the day.

Going to be hard to buy a cloud for most of this week.

Vacation starts tomorrow can't wait to hit the road. Would have preferred it be a bit warmer but beggers can't be choosers.

I beleaf the leaves are going to be pretty solidly changed for my vacation next week, very hyped.

I like hearing this, I am doing a vacation around Lake Huron and Lake Superior coming back in through Minnesota in a few weeks. I look forward to leaf peeping.

Nino is notorious for early snow, I'll go Oct 27th

The last 3 strong nino/super nino have been bad for us, and its been what 5 years since we hit or went above average. at some point you just have to look at things at face value, its not good, and may very well be very bad.

My thoughts on this winter, it is going to suck.

If I had to leave here it would probably be for somewhere in New England. But I don't ever see myself leaving Michigan, I love this state too much.

A grand total of .02 here overnight.
