So, the overwhelming majority opinion is that given the super duper el-Nino and warming background state, we will have a warm and unsnowy winter, a la 1998. Frankly, I am in the 1998 camp myself....with perfect benchmark lows that give us no snow, as alluded to by Weathafella a few posts back.
Tell me what can go "wrong" here. Are there feasible scenarios where this winter might overachieve? After all, history shows again and again how nature points out the folly of men!
