Wintry Winter Discussion 2023/24

I am sure WRAL will put out their usual forecast for below normal snowfall. Better to start out low and work upwards if you have to.

Why would anyone complain about accurate forecasting?
 
What do you guys honestly see happening this winter? Seems like almost everyone is talking about definitely having amped up storms with the jet stream track. All we need is the cold to line up at the right time. I’d give us about a 30% of a board wide hit this year instead of the usual 5%.
I think for the southeast outside of Florida, widespread average to slightly above average temperatures. There will be above average precipitation. I do think we’ll see at least 2 widespread winter storms outside of the mountains.
 
It's funny how almost every single Youtuber that talks about winter in the summer and puts out videos and "analysis" is a guy under the age of 27, with disheveled hair and mustard on his shirt and is obviously running his lab out of his mother's basement.
Yet we ( y’all ) still watch
 
I predict heartbreak for many....lol. I would imagine there will be some chances, but also some nasty misses as well.
One thing is for sure… unless something changes with SSTs in the Gulf and off the east coast in the next few months, assume that the amped solutions on models are right
 
I'm not surprised at all in regards to the tropics this season. Blind squirrel could see this one coming. I think we will get an early Fall Hybrid/Tropical characteristic /Nor'easter this year. That will probably stir up the shelf waters and eradicate the SSTs Chazwin is posting about.

If ever there would be a season for an October/ Hazel deal. This one would fit the bill. Ingredients will be there.
 
Weather Watcher all in!


Those maps are silly! And I don’t know how they got her to talk in the NOAA weather voice!
She’s got a “wild card” zone ? that’s the girl version of winter battle zone??
Let’s remember that last winter was a Niña, and it was the wettest and snowiest winters on record for California and other parts of the West, so expect the unexpected! How ironic would it be if the South was warmer and dryer than normal for the winter!?

amped is no bueno for us I take it?
 
Bold prediction: There will be a January 2016, Blizzard of '96, ect. type storm on the EC at some point this winter. We may or may not get in on the fun but I feel confident in a historic storm for the MA northward this year.
I believe you are right. It's going to be fun times from DC to Boston.
 
I would love nothing more then to see a 96er again, even if it meant 40 and wind driven rain.
 
I’m going with 36” for DBQ this winter total! Not going to be my winter! ?

I kind of agree on this outlook. I would think that the NC mountains, Charlotte north and east will do well. I'm really thinking SC, GA, AL and MS see all rain, but cool temps. TN and KY might do well in this pattern, though.

I wouldn’t throw out AL/MS just yet. For you to say we will see all rain this winter is crazy. So far all the forecast this winter says I’m gonna have some fun.
