As is customary for me, I try to provide an initial winter weather outlook around the first of September, just as we begin to think Fall. Why? It comes from my work experience in the private weather industry where critical planning for the upcoming winter takes place during September and October and that is when the winter outlook is so important. This includes the utility industry with regards to their planning on the amount of natural gas and heating oil will be required to heat our homes to local municipalities, state departments of transportation and the local snow plow operator and the amount of salt and anti-icing material may be required to keep our roadways clear of snow and ice and safe to commute on. This outlook is intended to assist everyone with these winter planning needs;

Looks like the Ski lodges won’t be making money this year.

I don't know about that I think California will be very wet and cold this year.

I'm hoping for the Sacramento River to rise and wash out all our crazy @$$ed liberals.
