Bit cooler than the norm the past few weeks but settling into the typical Pacific Northwest 40s-50s and light rain pattern. 59 and rainy today. Though El Niño is supposed to see to the continuation of the drought here for an atypical dry and sunny winter.
I live west of Denver up near the mountains, and we had a really late first snowfall. Since then, we've seen above average snowfall in our area. It seems like it's been colder and more humid than usual, but I don't have the data to back that one up.
My friends and family back on the east coast have had much warmer temperatures than they usually do. They really haven't had much snow, except for that one early storm in Oct.
Winter has been warmer than average in Wisconsin, with upper 30s and lower 40s, and we haven't even gotten any real snow yet. Usually the first accumulation would happen around the end of November.
It has been on the cooler side here in the Phoenix area. Several of the outlying areas have had a couple of frosts. The mountains have already has several snows. We had one cold blast about a week ago with temperatures only in the low 60s for highs and in the 30s at night. We have warmed back to the 70s during the day, but it remains cold at night in the low 40s. We are expecting a prolonged Arctic blast starting later this week with highs only around 60 and lows back into the 30s. It hasn't rained in about three weeks and it looks to remain dry for the next several weeks. I have had to use my space heater more this year than any of the past five winters that I have been here. I have relatives visiting over Christmas and will probably have to turn my heat on to keep them comfortable. I have a good feeling that if it remains this chilly and we get some of the moisture to move in that there might be snow in the Phoenix area at some point before the winter is through.
As of Dec 9 here in Quebec winter hasnt started yet and we are experiencing abnormally high temperatures for this time of year. Not looking like a white Christmas on long range weather forecasts.
I think we've had one night below freezing so far. None in the 10 day forecast. Several days of temps in the 60s forecasted. This might be the warmest December I've ever experienced, including all the years I lived in the south.

I have been in Atlanta before in the winter and it has been 75 degrees it depends on what part of the South but this is the warmest Dec ever in most parts of the Eastern USA so far I do agree with that.
