CERTAINLY - are you serious? Don't you know what business you're in?!<br /><br />Secondly, you seem to be comparing the upcoming winter's prediction with what last winter actually turned out to be. I think the proper comparison is between the NMME forecast from last year and the NMME forecast for this year. When you compare last year's NMME forecast with this year's NMME forecast, I think you see a different picture. Precipitation appears to be down over the region by a similar amount for this year (maybe even drier), but the temperature is predicted to be much warmer this winter than last winter.<br /><br />I don't think that jibes with your "certainly more snow" declaration...AnotherGuyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04742479230625476510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-26884200089987184872015-09-12T17:57:56.033-07:002015-09-12T17:57:56.033-07:00With climate change you can basically predict warm...With climate change you can basically predict warm and dry all the time and it's a safe bet.JThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13585863305029193236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-78198470468410267542015-09-12T07:16:41.341-07:002015-09-12T07:16:41.341-07:00considering the Sun drives everything on this plan...considering the Sun drives everything on this planet, there's obviously something to sunspots etc...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06097807891329244609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-53496564426068068252015-09-11T15:03:39.329-07:002015-09-11T15:03:39.329-07:00How about the number and size of the spiders crawl...How about the number and size of the spiders crawling in from the outdoors?eviehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06664593745528912939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-20022698683835464532015-09-11T10:36:06.257-07:002015-09-11T10:36:06.257-07:00How about how thick my cat's coat gets in the ...How about how thick my cat's coat gets in the fall?Mary and Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08332930828517797249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-30213173634337930722015-09-11T10:27:05.824-07:002015-09-11T10:27:05.824-07:00And a hemlock looper out break will proceed a shif...And a hemlock looper out break will proceed a shift toward neutral ENSOAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-19059672600357472802015-09-10T22:55:50.844-07:002015-09-10T22:55:50.844-07:00There is always; the size of you pine cones, light...There is always; the size of you pine cones, lighting in winter, Punxsutawney Phil, and fog in August.
