I'm not sure what the current view is - it's usually one of :- 1. We
will get it next
2. It will make it warm here
3. It has no specific bearing on our future weather

I'm guessing the media will plump for no.1 ;-)

Roy Spencer has something to say about the recent precipitous drop at
all troposphere levels and how the atmosphere is unstable and it's
effect on the recent NE states storm .. I wonder what Will thinks about
Spencer's comments or anyone else come to that.

The PDO index has been negative for most of the past four years and
strongly so for Jul-Sep this year. I suppose that may explain the current
dip.

With another La Nina kicking off, the USA should get a mild and dry
winter but I don't suppose it's got its mojo working yet. Perhaps the
snow is all the fault of La Nada.
