Is not good, unless you reside in drought stricken regions of California. What does this mean for Chicago?, probably a repeat of last year with a tad less snow.

"The main driver of last winter was the warm pool of above average waters over the northeastern Pacific, and this warm pool is still there. It is to blame for a lot of the volatility that we have seen this year in our temperatures across the United States."

Need to get my garage door fixed, other than that I'm good..... AWD for my 5 min drive to the train.... and trains give as many fucks about snow as Jay Cutler gives about anything.

I might break down and purchase a snowblower, last season got old fast.

That outlook is no surprise, simply a continuation of the cool wet summer we just experienced.

Wasn't there, wouldn't ever be there, so I don't care what happens to Lake Shore Drive.

If it's anything like last year, I'll be so fuckin pissed. Well...it won't be as bad. I worked outdoors last winter. Maybe that's why it felt a shit ton worse

The train may not care about the snow, but my body sure does. Hate having to walk through snow that goes halfway up your shins.

I don't want a repeat of last winter. My one ton with the plow took a fucking beating.
