Unusally Warm Fall and Winter of 2006-2007

As we head into the dead of Winter...what can we expect for Temperatures and Snowfall?
Temperatures:
Temperatures in the Short Term are expected to stay as they are right now. Above normal. We can occasionally expect a cold snap to occur. Let's hope that temperatures stay this way the whole Winter.
Snowfall:
Snowfall this time of the year should be around 15 to 20 inches already. We only have had 2 inches total the entire season! Our average yearly snowfall is 42 inches.
The active storm track has been further south across the Southeastern states. This has allowed for most of the snow in Texas...New Mexico...and places that you would not expect to see all that much. El Nino is expected to continue...therefore resulting in above normal temperatures and below normal snowfall.
