I’ve yet to see NWS or commercial agencies’ seasonal temps and precip predictions differ much from the climo Nina or Nino maps when these come out, with a couple degrees added for the background climate warming. I pay almost zero attention to most of these since there seems to be little analysis behind them. I pay more attention to the analyses posted here that look at other factors that can override the background ENSO state. 

thats why I'm strongly against enso based forecasting

There is some inkling of TeleConnection support around this time too.        Crossing of the Neutral  Zone by the NAO,PNA?        Otherwise the TC's look hopeless through March 15.          18Z is averaging 50degs.(41/60) for Week 2.

Meanwhile the GFS  is learning to climb mountains:

Why is snowman19 seemingly reacting to every post but never posing himself?

I mean it's pretty obvious- he's 5-posted and knows if he posted those would get used up pretty quickly, and then people would post in response and he wouldn't be able to respond back, etc.

TWC is an IBM company and IBM was loudly advertising their powerful AI based forecasting prowess.

So this forecast is perhaps a reality check, there is still lots of room for improvement in this space.

it's another one of those corrupt corporate tools now.  They hiked up prices for accessing WU data and most of my third party programs can no longer afford to work with WU data anymore.

I always hate the time of the year when the inevitability of Spring is staring me in the face.

Winter to Spring gives meaning to the lyrics of Mona Lisa; “many dreams have been brought on your doorstep. They just lie there and they die there”. As always ....
