My suggestion would be 'and forecasters say the worst is yet to come' - not only because its a cliche but because it is almost
always, unerringly wheeled out precisely when the worst has actually come and gone!

Somehow I get the feeling that "at least it will be mild" will win
February's award as well, probably "from the word go".
My long term forecast is for it to win October, November and December as
well.
There's a good chance that it could also win the all time climatic change
Greenhouse award and the Bartlett High award for lifetime achievements in
the over-use of cliches.
