Looking at overall indexes (ENSO, QBO, PDO, EPO), these years appear to be the best matches to this year: 2021, 2017, 2007, 2000, 1996, 1984, 1974, 1970, 1962, and 1956. 

A high percentage of these had widespread or significant lowland snow in December, and several had major bouts of Arctic air that month. Some of the older analogs were also very cold in January, but obviously that's been a much tougher nut to crack recently (although baby steps have been made).

Overall, the argument for a front-loaded winter looks about as strong as I've seen in awhile.

Here's the preceding November composite for those winters.

O the snow, the beautiful snow!
Filling the sky and the earth below!
Over the house-tops, over the street,
Over the heads of the people you meet,
Dancing, Flirting, Skimming along.
Beautiful snow! it can do nothing wrong.

The warm west/cool east signal for the analog pool for November is certainly playing out so far.

Still going to end up with a general warm west/cooler East month.

Los Angeles is in a small area of green. We had a very rainy and cold week.

Here's how November finished.

Warmest anomalies centered in Mountain West, coolest in the NE. From the analog list above, this is closest to: 2021, 2007, and 1962.
