Like clockwork, every third winter is a non winter. There's a reason I also wrote off this up coming winter last year, looks like I'll be right about this one.
Since 2016 every time those big white mushrooms show up after a prolonged wet period there's always some form of drought development before the calendar year is out.
This is a budding 2nd year nina, we could very well see those types of dew points into early October and highs in the 80s into late October. Happened 2016 and 2017.
