Down to 26 here. Chilly mornings. 

Love it. Nothing wakes me up and gets me ready to start the day like a shot of cold, fresh air in the morning. 
 

I remember we had a very strong cold shot around Nov 19-20 last year and I hit teens overnight. But before that I don’t remember hitting 20’s consistently.

what result? a winter like 1997? perhaps, but favorable winters also had cold novembers. there's just as much of a chance that NYC sees 40-50" as 10" this year IMO

We had a couple 3 to 6" storms every winter

One or two, yes. but 86, 88, 89 I don't remember anything significant. You can count the decent storms.....2 in 1982, one in 1983, one in 1987....come to think of it, 79,80, and 81 were all lean as well. It really wasn't til late 93 that we began to see big snows again. Truthfully, if I never have to break out the snowblower again, I'm ok with that. It's just that winter weather still kinda sucks around here when it is a drizzly sulk, and it is still too cold to do anything else.

Based on what i have seen over the years, for the most part, I don't expect a lot of snow in an El Nino year.

85-86 had 2 in Feb, Jan 88 had 2. Jan 89 another. All were snow days for me. Not huge storms by any means but certainly plowable. Before 82 I don't remember but 79 had the big president's day storm
