For those of you in the eastern portion of the US, Dave Tolleris of wxrisk.com has issued his ‘Winter Forecast’. He goes through a lengthy explanation of the factors that influence the weather and for those of you who have an interest in the details, it’s a fascinating analysis. Bottom line in general: colder, snowier winter than the last mild one. Here’s a link to his analysis and forecast:

For those of you who might be wondering ‘who the heck is this guy?’ .... DT (as we call him) has a subscription weather forecasting business. A couple of years ago, he started doing some predicting of snow storms in our area .... long before the TV meteorologists were calling for it (he has quite a bit of disdain for the TV meteorologists) ..... DT was correct on all the big snows we got that year. DT also fairly early predicted the path of Sandy. He has a reputation for being a litte rough around the edges, but quite accurate in his forecasting .... he’s become the ‘go to’ guy around here for a lot of folks. His website isn’t the most user-friendly ... I’m finding that if you go to Face Book & type in wxrisk, you get more frequent info. He’s also started a Sunday podcast to explain the weather & has maps ... very interesting, I love it! If you are inhabited with any sort of ‘weather nerd’ genes, you will like DT .... his forecasts do cover the east coast primarily because he lives in VA.

Whew! ou had me worried there for a moment. My loquat trees just went into bloom. If we have a hard winter, the blooms will freeze and we won't have any fruit.
