Snowfan here reports<\/a> how the ECMWF expects up to 3 meters of fresh snow in the Alps by the 7th of November.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, Joe Bastardi also sees signs that Europe\u2019s winter will likely be a cold one (normal to below-normal)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

First we look at snowfall for the Alps over the next 10 days:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This would mean an early start to the ski season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Snowfan<\/a>, Europe in 2023 so far has been widespread wet and Northern Europe has been quite cold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Winter to follow period of heavy precipitation<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

And at his latest\u00a0Saturday Summary here, Joe Bastardi<\/a>\u00a0warns of a \u201cmajor stratospheric warming event\u201d shaping up over the Arctic for December, which \u201creally ups the ante for the winter\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As for Europe, heavy rains are forecast for the early part of November, and Joe thinks this is a signal for cold weather will follow, similar to 2009:<\/p>\n\n\n

\u201cI think the next 2 months, November and December, are below normal overall,\u201d says Joe. \u201cWe got a cold winter for Europe this year.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So stay tuned. Joe plans to present his next winter forecast update next Saturday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the meantime, my firewood is ready and dry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
