As you should be. Don't give that bozo qg the respect of even answering his post. He doesn't give 2 shits about what you do.... He is just looking to troll and to get the best of you and anyone else who is a Winter enthusiast. I laugh wh never I see his posts now. It's become comical. 

Well, troll or not....I don't move the goal posts. I have been significantly too cool so far....that is fact. Its not because I am biased, its because seasonal forecasting is hard.

I did get the general pattern correct, I just wasn't extreme enough, which I think is a more palatable error in a seasonal effort. 

You are a good forecaster, just need to account more for AGW.  Take the forecast and add 3 degrees to what the analogues suggest.

I was definitely significantly too cool in December, but I think everyone was in the same boat on that....and you never issued a map or forecast, so....

Didn't most people have it warm in December going to a backloaded winter? Not being a dick just asking.

Yes. It’s pretty typical El Niño climo for December to be warm and February to be cold. Doesn’t always work of course but it’s a pretty strong correlation.

Yes. All I am saying is that qualitatively speaking I had the warmest anomalies and coolest anomalies in the right areas. It's not like I had New England the coolest relative to average.

Got it, you just didn't anticipate such a widespread torch. Thanks

Canadian was pretty close but the gfs took a large step back 

To be honest this looks as close to a SE Mass special as anything in the last 2 years (which isn’t saying much ) but it’s finally cooooollld by the coast and the folks on the Cape that haven’t drank themselves into a stupor last cpl winters
