I am. Well below average if I had to hazard a guess.
I never made a winter forecast this year. But my generally feeling in late November would have made me go with:
December - Mild, perhaps on the wet side.
January- cold. Above average snow. But near to below average precip overall
February. Chilly. Possibly wet.

I think a cooler/drier Jan is a good bet at this point.

Jet suppression would be good news for California and southern Oregon. They need all the precip they can get at this point.

They are pretty unreliable anyway. I’d bet they have trended warmer in the short term but still look good for January. Those seasonal models lean heavily on ENSO, so they will look Nina like almost for sure.

Those Alaska vortex patterns can be tough to break but it could be good if we ever dislodge the cold once it gets stacked up to our north.
