Weatherbell has their prelim winter forecast out and is predicting below normal temps and above normal snow for eastern US. This is a departure from their usual winter forecast when they predict below normal temps and above normal snow every year. Expand Weatherbell is predicting a cold and snowy winter for the east coast again??? No way I don’t believe it!!! That’s so out of character!! It’s a Niña so I’m sure their analogs are 95-96, 10-11 and March of 1993 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Yea my guess is still favorable early on.

40/70 Benchmark Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 I'm actually not that concerned about the negative PDO....my hunch is that we actually average a slightly positive PNA. The larger concern will be the tendency for a fairly flat Aleutian ridge if la nina remains modoki through the fall and into the winter, which is not a given.
