Hey Don hate to bother, however once the pattern flips to Pacific flow dominace do you feel that we will have "breaks" in the pattern favorable to cold/snow in Jan and Feb, or so you believe we are heading towards a 2011 2012 type pattern stability? 2016 2017 would be a good example of the former. For the latter of course with the "fluke" scenario and March volatility taken aside.
The reason I personally feel better about this winter is the warm pool in the NE Pacific and the blocking that for some reason is showing itself.
