The forcast for this winter?

Ok, so everyone remembers how much last winter just sucked worse than a pineapple in the butt, but what's the forcast for this winter? Are we supposedly in for another half year of ice and snow? Or is this one going to be mild in comparison? Are there going to be an El Ninos or Ninas or somesuch nonsense that is going to be the result of much shrinkage? I just want to be mentally prepared for it.

I spit on winter. :spit:
 
I'm preparing myself for 60-80F days and 50-65F nights. I'm fully stocked on shorts and sandals.

Yes, I'm an ***hole. Yes, I enjoy living in FL despite the terrible summers and the hurricanes, and threads like this just reinforce that fact.
 
It has snowed twice here so far, both times less then 3 inches. Following each storm it rained which got rid of the snow and covered everything in ice.
I'm expecting this all winter considering it was only really cold for about a week and ever since its slowly been getting warmer.

Brown winters ftw, I hate snow.
 
Last year was great for skiing and snowboarding in the Rockies. Sooo much snow. I had a ton of fun with it. But yeah, the Prairies look to be in for a long cold spell. Although I moved to NS 3 months ago from Calgary I still keep tabs on the weather there out of habit.
 
Winter is well underway up here. 2 feet of snow in some spots. Supposedly the prairie provinces are getting some cold wind chill (-40 degrees Celsius). I was out for a while today and wished I had a scarf at times.

I'll be going back home (Oshawa) on Wednesday for two weeks. Supposedly there is snow, but mixed with rain.
 
Yesterday was in the mid 40's. Right now it's 12 with a high of 17.

The only thing I can gurantee about this winter is that it will be cold and windy. This is a huge surprise to me as I've lived in the Midwest my entire life. :ninja:

The main thing that I'm hoping for is less ice-I can deal with the snow.
