All the seasonals with a great look on an active winter for Nor Easters blew dirt.
This is so true, the Pac jet ruled , and combined with the -PDO really moved the outcomes off to the South, . cutter or coastal hugger.
You need to have a good December I think to feel confident about Jan through March. November snowfalls have no real meaning.
Also Judah failed with his AO forecast, it will end the season positive despite a robust finish in the SAI and even early season record NA snowfall coverage.
After the record NA snowcover we lost a lot of the snowcover and went below rapidly, as soon as the Pac changed and we lost the - SOI and then the High pressure began to form in the Pacific reinforcing the WAR.
Seems the oceans are more important for climate then SSWE, AO and the SAI . The Pac being the KING !

Officially the first winter since 11-12 with no real benchmark track 40/70 storms. Notice how dry that storm track has been compared to 2013-2018 when it was so active. Cutter and hugger storm tracks have completely dominated.
