3. I hope we get a lot of rain

AND a lot of snowpack in the Sierras. Otherwise...

Should be colder than normal in the mid-atlantic and possibly
the Northeast, warmer in the Northwest (at least that is what
I remember from the long range forecast on the Weather channel).

6. In the Late 70s
One January there was a total of 15 MINUTES of sunshine in the entire month (Columbus). Brrrrr. No kidding.

12. Hey my son is up there freezing~
his first time in REALLY cold weather, in Lagrange. He said that 'snow' is a really dirty word, worse than the 'f' word.

7. Texaslady, based on the current weather here..
I would say you are dead on withthe wet wet wet estimations.

Here in North Texas, we usually have one ice day in Feb

8. We need a wet winter.
That keeps the temps slightly lower in the summer, and also means more wildflowers in the spring!

9. Boston had a lot of snow last week
Much earlier than last year. It was my first New England winter, and even though there was a blizzard, apparently it wasn't *that* big of a deal :think:

13. NorthTX prediction
Back in June I predicteed the DFW area would be wet and cold. Not alot of ice and snow days, but that the cold days would hang around longer than usual and be a littler colder than normal.

Still feels that way to me! but, I've only lived here for 4 years and spent the previous 12 in NC -- so,,,what do I know???
