As we get closer to winter the predictions will be more accurate.
We better have a good season up here in the pnw or they'll have to up my meds.... Or I will do it for them. Medical Marijuana that is.

long range forecasts.
btw. it is really really easy to forecast a slightly warm or a warm winter because in 80-90% of the cases you will be right thanks to global warming. goooood forecast.
ot part:
there are certain long term rules for europe. especially concerning october. but all these rules were made without climatic change and i don't know any concerning the US.
what is interesting concerning europe is the complete breakdown of the circulation over the atlantic right now and in the next days/week. that might me interesting for europe if it tends to persist.It's a war of the mind and we're armed to the teeth.

Remember, a "Normal" winter in the PNW is pretty damn good and a hell of a lot better than last season.
The snow doesn't give a soft white damn whom it touches.

The best way to do a long range forecast for winter is to look back in history at years with a similar pattern to what we are experiencing now, and try to draw as many parallels as you can. Originally Posted by mrryde

There are 5 similar cycles in the last 100 years so thats good guidance. I am working on a specific winter forecast for Utah and will get the results together soon. It's a time-consuming process...
The early results are *very* different than what the maps posted in this thread from the Climate Prediction Center are coming up with.
V-e-r-y different...
(and yes, by May I'll have the winter forecast nailed.)
