From everything that I am hearing about the super El Nino, it's not likely at all that we're going to have a very cold winter. The likelihood is milder than normal, but that doesn't mean we'll just have rain, even if we're a few degrees warmer than the average temps. We can still have big snow storms if everything is timed well. So hard to know. I think that's what keeps. All of us coming back is the unknown and the hope of what we'll see. At least we're heading in the right direction as far as seasons go for all of us snow lovers

I woke up and was in surprised to see you. Hoping we didn't lose power tonight, but other than that, a pretty interesting little storm. Do you think this will be a pattern we'll see as we head into Winter?

Ryan was just saying on the news that the rain looks like it's moving in but not reaching the ground and is creating rainbows. The sky is absolutely amazing. Also, there's just that feeling with the wind going and the sky looking the way it does that you know it's going to be a interesting weekend weather wise.

So, now that we have a new addition to our family, meet Ms. Jettie. She's never seen snow as she was found in in southern Texas when she was only 2 months old back in the beginning of the year. Brought up here in April. I'm hoping she'll get to see some snow this year for her first winter in the Northeast

I saw someone reference the El Nino of 1877 to the El Nino for this winter. I looked it up just to see what effects it had on the Northeast, and it was considered the winter that wasn't. I'm just going to go with low end on the snow and if we get anything major it'll be a good surprise. We saw this coming so shouldn't be a surprise if we get, at best, a mediocre winter

Um... It's the NAM with 3-4 days to go. Are you seriously putting stock in this run (whether it's good or bad).

What if? Well...at least q-Schmegma loved your comment

Nice to see your fresh take on a new season.

Tropical!! Man, you are killing it.

So I have a question that someone relates to the June topic. I just posted in the winter form for this upcoming winter as well. I saw a few different posts now from different people saying they're expecting a Modoki El nino for the upcoming summer and winter. From what I'm reading, that gives us a completely opposite effect of a typical super El Nino. Meaning, not as hot of a summer, not as suppressed when it comes to hurricanes, and a colder stormy year pattern for the winter. Figured more people are in this current June discussion topic than they are right now in the winter discussion ( that's been crickets, as it should be )

So I'm just curious. I saw a few posts from different people saying that they're expecting this El nino to be a Modoki El Nino for the summer and winter. And they're saying with that it's opposite of a typical El nino. Just curious on thoughts from you guys on this

We grow them in Connecticut. You just want to wrap them up in the winter time to protect them

Losing a dog ( or cat ) is so difficult, even harder than a human. I lost my last of our three dogs a year ago October. We are finally going to start looking again by this summer. We do have a houseful of the feline variety though, so no lack of happiness here. Just ready to add the canine back to our household.

Dude... It's done! Just wipe that thought from your brain ( especially where you are ). It's rare by that point to get Snows.... And even if we do, it would be a surprise. Better to look forward to next year at this point.

Yeah... Who are the trusted meteorologist were saying we're going to see temperatures in the low 60s on Sunday. I'm hopeful for that as it's my daughter's 13th birthday
