It's been a while We had a nice one last year, about 3 inches Christmas Eve into Christmas Day. Snow showers all day as well. Pretty nice. That pretty much guarantees us here in central Ohio see no snow for Christmas over the next 20 or so years! LOL 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just when you think you've got ENSO figured out, climate change comes along and throws a wrench into the cogs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also true, it could literally be anything. Look at last February, who saw crippling cold that deep into the south. If someone says they did, I want the mega million numbers too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's true. Nothing plays by the rules any more. 2007-08 analog gives a warm fuzzy, but who really knows. 2017-18 also had a hot October and turned into a pretty good winter for some. It certainly featured one of the colder and snowier holiday weeks in many moons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IWXwx Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 After I posted those CPC forecast maps yesterday, I thought they looked familiar. On the left is this year's predictions and last year's is on the right. Cut and paste? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also heard directly from Dr. Uccellini at one of the conferences that long term warming factors into the outlooks, which is why you typically won't see a ton of blues on the seasonal outlooks. This is even more true once you get out to the 6-12 month outlooks. You'll basically never see any blue anywhere on those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
