They literally do this yearly and somehow still get surprised
It's hilarous when they continue to cherry pick the coldest El Nino winters while ignoring the fact it's a strongish El Nino with modern records suggesting it will likely lead to warmer and drier outcome. Snowless winter? Unlikely, but anything outside of day 5 should be taken with a grain of driveway salt.

At least it’s good for amusement. We will see how long it takes for me to get banned for failing to get aboard the snow train this year.

Anything to fit their narrative, then they will fight each other for being too negative or too positive. The good ol pissing contest on the American forum.

They banned me 3 times lol will try to make another account.
I do like to wishcast cold/snow but I also see east coast mets who are climate experts bring up the ideas that despite us technically being in a strong El Nino, the atmosphere is not fully linked and behaving like the Strong El Nino. I do believe we have a shot at winter next month and there's no reason to be depressed about our snow prospects for December. I also think there's a realistic shot that we will be more warm/dry as we head into late Winter/Spring but again there's much to be decided before this will happen.
To Sum up:
- Good chance of at least cold next month, maybe some snow
- We'll probably be drier than normal
- Nino is forecast to begin fading in the next couple months as we head into Spring/Summer.

I'd be very surprised if we don't see a cold air outbreak next month with at least some snow. I could be wrong but I think December has a good chance to perform before January fails once again.
