Snow is a No.

The fact of the matter was, that model was one run out of four daily. Things change, and as a matter of fact , still have the clipper coming through. Further to the North though. The cold air looks to retreat, and maybe, we might be going back to a warmer weather pattern. Not good for snow lovers. We have been stuck in this drought forever now, and it wont go away. We need a major climate change to break it. What is happening, is ther is La Nina in the Pacific Ocean. In shorter terms, La Nina is very cool waters of the central Pacific. Thus, most of the storms form in the UNUSUALLY warmer water, just north. All of these storms are directed to the NW United States and Canada, keeping the Jet Stream well to our North. Our main moisture source, the Gulf of Mexico, is virtually non existent. What remains to be seen is how long this La Nina takes shapes for. If it collpases, who knows what will happen. I will tell you this, though. It is unpredictable what La Nina will bring. Barring a few other Climate changes in Canada, the Jet Stream can be deflected not as far NW, then sout across the gulf. If tha happens it will greatly increases our chances of a snowy winter. I will release my winter forecast this week sometime.
