Any relationship between major hurricane landfalls and the following winters? 92-93 was a rough one but wonder how that correlates if even at all.

I did analogues last year (run Cleo and Kate and compare them to last year's storms - Hermine and Matthew) and busted big time ... no help here ... :(

I say that's doubtful, no correlation.

So if we were to remain in Neutral ENSO going into the Winter Months, I see that my location has had a few good Winter Storms in such years. 1994 looks to have been one of those and we saw a hell of an Ice Storm for the Delta Region of Mississippi. That was a crazy storm.
 
JB says his favorite model, CFSv2, has come around to a La Niña look and super long range Euro seasonal, now supports it! JB, you the man! :)
 
So that's a cancel on Winter for the Southeast?
Winter cancelling this far out is a bit premature. Saying we will get a big dog is premature. Saying we will roast and torch is premature. Anything JB related can be thrown in the burn pile for all I care at the moment, unless it's a torch forecast. If he forecasts a torch for us, we may or may not be in for something good. I just have a feeling Christmas will be cold this year.

Looks like Siberia experienced an abnormal August snow according to the Siberian Times. I hope this season brings the goods for us in the SE!

This winter should be great. Even of there were a Lina or Nino, you can still score a winterstorm. Just like the saying it only takes 1, well it took Harvey and Irma.
Very true! Was searching around online and came across Iowa States archived AFD's from the MEG Office January 21st-22nd 2016 winter storm potential and how they spoke of possible blizzard conditions with that storm. Lol even though it busted terribly just reading that type of forecast over gets me excited for the upcoming season and the possibilities at hand.
