The National Weather Service has released their forecast for this winter (December through February) and the current El Nino has a big influence on it.  Most of the country (especially from here through the northwest) is expected to see a milder than average winter.  The south is expected to be wetter than normal.  It is hard to make a prediction based on this forecast for our snowfall since there are equal chances it will be either greater than average or less than average. However, past winters during El Nino years tended to experience milder and drier than normal weather.

In case you are curious, the Farmer's Almanc has called for a "bitterly cold & dry" winter for the midwest.
