Winter 2018

It's so friggin hot I decided to look up some long range forecasts for winter 2018 2019

Can't seem to find any real predictions on this coming winter

Hopefully we'll get some more snow this year. Last year was a total dud and I barely used my AWD.

Because nobody can predict weather out here. Ask any meteorologist and they will tell you this region is not like anywhere else. Our region is a clusterfuck of jet streams and anomalies that even the Andorians can't figure out.

The Winter 2018 forecast is it'll rain, with more rain, wet snow, snow that will stay on the ground for 24 hours, back to rain, heavy rain and we'll finish off winter with...rain.

No snow please. Because 99% of people doesn't know how to drive in snow and cause major delays/accidents which will cause more delays and then public transit will not work causing more people to miss work.

Vancouver normals (Source: Environment Canada, 1981-2010) for this time of the year are high of 21.7°C, low of 13.3°C, 22% chance of precipitation. You realize the anomaly has been pretty much the rest of this summer, right?

Anyways, to answer the OP, the NOAA is forecasting 70% chance of a weak El Nino this winter (above normal temperatures, above normal precipitation).
