Good news for snow-lovers here:

NYC, Philly, DC: Winter 2012-2013 will be "Snow" Joke



By Meghan Evans, Meteorologist
Aug 16, 2012; 4:46 PM ET

Following a snow drought during winter 2011-2012, the mid-Atlantic and southern New England will get a snow dump this winter.

Above-normal snowfall is forecast for the major I-95 cities, including New York City, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington, D.C., during winter 2012-2013.

"The I-95 cities could get hit pretty good. It's a matter of getting the cold to phase in with the huge systems that we are going to see coming out of the southern branch of the jet stream this year," AccuWeather.com Lead Long-Range Forecaster Paul Pastelok said.

The cold is expected to phase with the big storms during January and February with the potential for large snowstorms to make headlines and create travel headaches in the major cities.

On the other hand, the ski industry, which despite an early start for some resorts suffered a slow season overall last winter, will benefit from the above-normal snowfall.

There was also a long range forecast that called for a lot of snow last year. But I hope they're right this time.

I like the forecast for northern Utah.  Oklahoma looks to be average

How would you possibly get anywhere?  Look for profits to increase at area Motel 6's.

Last year's long range prediction was a complete bust.  We'll see how the models perform this year.

No thanks. I'll gladly take another non-winter, thank you very much. The older I get, the less tolerance I have for the cold and the snow.
