I just think the one eyed pig is going to be a pain in our sides for large portions of the winter. And maybe a slightly stronger than normal SE ridge pushing zone north. And I could see a drier than normal winter..though that I'm not as confident in

Thats fine. I could see a warm stretch for 3-4 weeks myself with AK troughing but I dont see 11/12 imo. The pig is there for about a week then all signs point to ridging to close out the month. if it comes back for majority of Nov then I will salute you and hop on the rat mobile.

Look at mid November.  If the guidance breaking down the pig holds, the question will be how quickly it returns.  If it breaks down by 11/5 and shows signs of returning a week or 2 later, we may be in trouble.  If the change to remove the vortex (displaced west) strengthens beyond current guidance, we may be in good shape.  The next 6 weeks tell the tale.

No arguments there . NoV is very impossible in determining how our winter goes

Yeah I would agree, but early season snow is fun to get us in the mood.  I would prefer the ENSO to be in neutral more so or slightly El Nino, but again a small La Nina isn't bad either, just more miller Bs

How accurate is that model?

And a study which might be interesting.

There seems to be two types of La Nina with different implications for our weather. We - the winter lovers- need an Eastern Pacific La Nina. E.g. 2006-1996-1985.
