1888 - A late season hurricane brushed the East Coast with heavy rain and gale force winds. The hurricane passed inside Nantucket and over Cape Cod, then crossed Nova Scotia. (David Ludlum)

1896 - Snow and high winds hit the Northern Plains and the Upper Mississippi Valley, with a Thanksgiving Day blizzard across North Dakota. The storm was followed by a severe cold wave in the Upper Midwest. The temperature at Pokegama Dam MI plunged to 45 degrees below zero. (David Ludlum)

1987 - A Thanksgiving Day storm in the northeastern U.S. produced heavy snow in northern New England and upstate New York. Snowfall totals in Maine ranged up to twenty inches at Flagstaff Lake. Totals in New Hampshire ranged up to 18 inches at Errol. Gales lashed the coast of Maine and New Hampshire. A second storm, over the Southern and Central Rockies, produced nine inches of snow at Kanosh UT, and 13 inches at Divide CO, with five inches reported at Denver CO. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data)

1988 - Thunderstorms produced severe weather over the Central Gulf Coast States during the late morning and afternoon hours. Five tornadoes were reported in Mississippi, with the tornadoes causing a million dollars damage at Ruleville, and in Warren County. In Utah, the town of Alta was blanketed with 15 inches of snow overnight, and during the day was buried under another 16.5 inches of snow. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data)

1989 - A massive storm over the western U.S. produced heavy snow in Utah, Colorado, Wyoming and Montana. The storm produced more than two feet of snow in the higher elevations of northern and central Utah, bringing more than sixty inches of snow to the Alta Ski Resort in the Wasatch Mountains. Winds in Utah gusted to 60 mph at Bullfrog. The storm brought much needed snow to the ski resorts of Colorado, with 19 inches reported at Beaver Creek. (Storm Data) (The National Weather Summary)

Look like phases 1/2 as we start January, albeit not too strong of a wave. I think Ninas typically are colder December into the first half of January?

This looks like it will fail to reach Nina territory anyway.  We might get to -0.5 briefly some time mid to late December but it could easily stay neutral the rest of the way.  We have very little track record in recent years in the new climo of a neutral after Nino.  92-93 and 03-04 are the only things close and both were neutral warm while this is neutral cold.  80-81 was really the last neutral cold following a nino

80/81 was not terrible snowfall wise with CPK at 19.4 inches. Not sure what the temps were like wrt above or below average.

It was a cold winter. The highlight was late December into early January, which featured extreme cold. NYC saw the temperature fall to -1° on December 25th.

These days most would take that. I think there was a good storm in March that year 

I was thinking, if the issue was suppression that year then add in more of a SE ridge and we could be off to the races.

I wonder if the more persistent SE ridge these days would yield better results wrt snowfall avoiding suppression.

I remember that well, we were visiting my children's godparents in Manassas, VA (a suburb of DC) over that holiday and their forced hot air HVAC system was running full blast but it could not keep up, I guess those houses weren't designed to deal with temps below zero.  On one particularly frigid night we all went to bed bundled up in our ski jackets lol.  By the time we were back home I had caught a cold from one of my sons that developed into walking pneumonia.  Hopefully this won't be as severe as that was....
