We put aside predictions from woolly caterpillars and the almanacs and look at the science to get a sense for how this winter will play out across the United States. This is the first of two episodes focused on the upcoming 2022-2023 winter season.

Judah Cohen, Director of Seasonal Forecasting at AER (Atmospheric and Environmental Research), is a climatologist who focuses on long-range forecasts and is the guest for both episodes. He talks about his memories of past storms, thoughts on popular forecasting methods and what we might see this year.
