So we know El Nino is coming but will it be enough to make a dent in the California-West Coast drought? Will it spare parts of the country of big snowstorms? Will it be like a few other El Nino's where the temps stayed rather mild all winter? The typical summer effects of El Nino are already in place with an active wet monsoon pattern in the Southwest and rather damp conditions in parts of the South.

Nation's First Winter Storm Warning of Season Issued Wednesday
Winter Storm Warning for northeastern Alaska
The calendar may still say August, but the first winter storm warning was issued Wednesday in the U.S.. and you guessed it – the warning is in far northern Alaska.
There was snow last week in Glacier National Park, but winter storm warnings were not issued. Temperatures dipped into the 30s into much of northern Montana, including Cut Bank, where the low hit 32 degrees Aug. 23.
Current Conditions and Radar
Now, at the end of August, there is a winter storm warning for the northeastern Brooks Range above 2,000 feet in northern Alaska until 6 a.m. local time Friday. Heavy snow will make travel difficult. Snow totals of 4 to 7 inches are expected. About 3 inches has already fallen Wednesday night. The heaviest snow will be in Atigun Pass.
Strong and gusty winds will also accompany the snow with sustained winds up to 35 mph.
Snow in northern Alaska is not rare in late August. Barrow saw its first measurable snow of the 2015-16 snow season on Aug. 18 when 0.2 inches of snow fell and a trace of snow has been recorded a few time since then. On average, 0.7 inches of snow is observed in August in Barrow.
This current system, however, has brought mild temperatures and rain to Barrow and a daily rainfall record was set Tuesday with 0.55 inches of rain. The high in Barrow on Tuesday reached 52 degrees, 10 degrees above average. It has also been warm in southern Alaska where Cold Bay set a daily record high of 70 degrees Wednesday.

As low pressure waves hit US / Canada area SNOW is anticipated around Whistler BC 3- 6 Sept.
Not sure of complete storm track a week away since my "normal" sources are for California
California will have freezing nighttime temps same period of time way up high 7000 feet.
