Planning ahead for winter? NOAA just released its new winter outlook for New York State.<\/p>\n

NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center released its winter temperature and precipitation outlook map for December 2026 through February 2027.<\/p>\n

Seasonal Temperature Outlook<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Climate Prediction Center predicts a warmer-than-average winter driven by a powerful El Ni\u00f1o pattern for most of the country, including the Northeast.<\/p>\n

For the Hudson Valley, this means temperatures are favored to run above normal for the bulk of the winter season.<\/p>\n

For all the news that the Hudson Valley is sharing, make sure to follow Hudson Valley Post on Facebook,<\/a>\u00a0and download the\u00a0Hudson Valley Post Mobile App <\/a><\/p>\n

The entire northern United States falls into that above-average temperature category, while areas along the Gulf Coast and parts of the Southeast are looking at near-normal conditions.<\/p>\n

No part of the country is predicted to see a colder-than-average winter.<\/p>\n

Seasonal Precipitation Outlook\"NOAA\"NOAANOAA<\/p>\n

On the precipitation side, most of New York State, including the Hudson Valley and Capital Region, falls into the wetter-than-average zone.<\/p>\n

NOAA is favoring above-normal precipitation across much of the South and East Coast. Meanwhile, parts of the northern Rockies and Great Lakes region are expected to see drier-than-average conditions.<\/p>\n

It should be noted that this is a three-month probability outlook, not a day-by-day forecast and definitely not a snowfall prediction.<\/p>\n

Even if temperatures trend warmer overall, the Hudson Valley can still see stretches of significant cold and winter storms. A warmer-than-average winter doesn’t mean a snow-free one.<\/p>\n

In fact, experts continue to believe a so-called “Super El Nino” <\/a>is going to impact New York State this winter.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0NOAA says that New York is one of just four states where residents should be bracing for significant snow and heavy precipitation due to the Super El Nino.<\/p>\n

The Super El Nino<\/a> winter forecast for New York shows heavy precipitation, intense coastal storms, and a razor-thin margin between significant snow and heavy, flooding rain.<\/p>\n
