Next winter is probably going to fall into the weak nino range. We have to hope that we can get the mjo into the cold phases though WEN charged up STJ+bad mjo=yikes
I’d love for a weak to moderate El Niño as despite the unusual 2018-9 they have historically averaged coldest by a good margin in the SE US. Some great weak to low end moderate El Niño winters: 1884-5, 1885-6, 1904-5, 1911-12, 1923-4, 1939-40, 1941-2, 1963-4, 1968-9, 1969-70, 1976-7, 1977-8, 1979-80.
