(WGHP) — FOX8 Meteorologist Charles Ewing is up next to make his prediction for this year’s winter weather.

According to Charles, a weak La Niña should develop this winter. Typically, a La Niña involves the water of the Pacific Ocean warming off the coast of South America, bringing the Piedmont a warm and dry winter.

Here are Charles’s predictions:

Colder or warmer? When it comes to temperatures, I think December will be cooler than normal with slightly above-average temperatures in January and February.

Coldest temperature? 15°

How many inches of snow? 7 inches

Largest snowfall? 3 inches

First snow? Dec. 22
