Given there was no winter last year I guess eventually there will be another one at some point.

Bit of a flatter ridge builds on the 00z Euro, but still trending much warmer again for Labor Day weekend and beyond. Rain opportunities looking very scarce down here with this blink and you miss it trough deal.

I do think this winter will be more interesting than many believe

I think he told you not to look at the AIFS now. I'll have to double check though.

Almost seems like they do because it was distinctly cooler across the whole NW OR and SW WA area. With actual rainfall in May and June unlike this year. As my post stated.
