Same here. I'm heading South right after Christmas and will not be returning until May. I'll gladly give up the snow for the white sand beaches of Siesta Key.

Actually a very weak El Nino Winter is comming soon.

NOAA's Dec. '18 - Feb. '19 forecast is for higher than average temps in Michigan, with lower precipitation.

NORAD hasn't publicly released their LT forecasts for a few years, but they were the most accurate by far, as their forecasts for our region took into account factors such as Hudson Bay water temperatures and projected freeze level, which both affect positioning of the jet stream and "polar vortex," to which our weather is more subject than the nino/nina systems.

After being wrong. It was one of the warmest Decembers on record, with barely any snowfall [[there was more rain than snow.) But pretty good prediction on January!

Yeah, the prediction for December actually happened in November.
