According to this Boston.com article conditions are currently set up like the snowy winters of the 70s we (well those of us 40+ anyway) remember:

Not to toot his horn (he does that himself quite well) but JB has been saying we were heading in that direction for several years now.

PRetty interesting fact. I did not realize it has been this long.

Florida has gone 3,270 days without a hurricane – nearly nine years and, by far, the longest stretch on record (the next longest streak is 5 seasons from 1980-1984, in records dating back to 1851).

Predictions back to winters in the 70s.... Epstein is one of ~ 50% of meteorologist that does not buy into the AGW hype. He looks at data and analogs like JB and not at GCM.
