For south west BC that means warmer than normal winters. This place (and the weather channel) is predicting subzero temperatures from October to December. Even in December sub zero is pretty rare around here.

Ambient temperatures have more to do with wind. Look up the polar jets stream.
Increasing the global temperature “weakens” the polar vortex causing it to have a more “wavy” shape that wobbles north/south instead of going straight east.
El Nino will contribute to this weakening which also results in more “polar winds” coming straight south, as well as “heat domes” which trap hot stagnant air.
