Hi all, I'm new to the forums. I've had a look at the JMA long range forecasts for 12/13. I find it a bit unclear. For example in Niigata December - February they predict a 40% chance of below "normal snowfall" - does this mean a 60% of above "normal" snowfall?
I remember the long range forecast for 10/11 predicted something similar and when I went to Niseko in January 2011 they had a big month of snow relatively speaking. So, does anyone know how often these forecasts are actually on the money or at this stage is it really just an educated guess based on the fact its been a warm summer mu
