The jetstream is going to make its first blast south to the Gulf of Mexico mid-to-late September…It also shows the first snows for central Canada around September the 20th

pattypooh3, according to the 2012 issue of the farmers almanac, you will see average temps very white, wet. So I’d say mild and snowy, with many wet days as well.

What about Northwest Indiana? We tend to get the southern edge of Lake effect weather. How does our snow forcast look? I hope we’re in for a snowy winter!!

I hope we get a lot of snow here in the DC Metro region. I’m a slow lover!

Louisiana could be under more infleunce from a pesky SE Ridge this Winter but will see occasional cold shots with frosts and freezes down to the coast. Snow for your area is quite hard to forecast, particularly this year since you average snowfall is less than 2 inches.

It means you can expect around 125% of normal liquid precipitation. This is assuming we see more Apps Runners this year.

FatherFrost, we need all the hope we can get. But the winter of 2012-2013 is too far for my trees to make it. I have never wished for a tropical storm but we are in need. What part of the country do you live?

Glennkoks, I think there may be hope for texas. This is WAY out there but after 2 back-to-back La Nina’s I think we might see a blip El Nino for the Winter of 2012/2013. This would bode extremely well for you if it were to come true. So there is hope!

Thanks for your time putting this forecast together. However I sure hope you are wrong about the precipitation here in Texas. We are in a terrible drought possibly the worst ever and the ENSO changing from neutral back to negative does not bode well for us. Most of my area is between 12 and 20 inches below normal for rain.
