Farmers Almanac put out their Winter Projection...

[Doc]

Sounds like my wife.

Frosty, wet, and white? Nice

I didn't need Farmer's almanac to know that fact. It will be one cold winter.

 

[ArgentCy]

This is what they projected last year. Which if I recall seems fairly accurate:

COLD WINTER AHEAD!
So just how cold will it be? The real teeth-chattering arrives mid-February especially in the following zones: Northeast/New England, Great Lakes, Ohio Valley, Midwest, and Southeast (yes, even the Southeast will be in the chill zone!!)

So this is a slight improvement from last year. Slightly happier.

I can deal with frigid as long as it's also snowy!

yep if its going to be cold, pile the snow on please!! granted I love snow even with out having access to all the fun toys for it anymore.

 

[motorcy90]

As long as it isn't as bad as this past winter, idc.

I could deal with out the -68 windchill, but dump the snow please.

Whar' global warming?

Which begs the question, what does the old farmers' almanac predict this winter for the other 94% of the Earth.

Hot and cold in places

O/U on the number of "Polar Vortexes" we'll be forced to endure? Cause apparently we can't just call them by their real name "winter".

Actual as in way less accurate? Because Farmers Almanac was dead right when most expected a mild winter.

You’re using the CNN of weather-related journalism to bash weather forecasters?

 

[TBT]

As someone who bought their first home last July with a large driveway, I would greatly appreciate a little less snow than last year.

 

[Walden4Prez]

I love listening to people ***** every ******* year about winter having snow and being cold. YOU LIVE IN THE ******* UPPER MIDWEST! MOVE OR SHUT THE **** UP.

Take you CNN journalism grievances to the cave please. Why is it everyone turns a thread into politics? I googled "weather channel goof gifs" this came up. Sorry if I offended you.

 

[CycloneSarah]

Also, I can't wait until I move to somewhere predicted to be "brisk" in the winter.

I just did and I'm excited to experience my first brisk winter! Plus the summer hasn't been any worse than Iowa. I've even felt like it's been less oppressively humid in general. But the trade-off is no season tickets or tailgating in Ames which is killing me inside.

The two typically come hand in hand. The coldest temperatures usually only materialize with snow on the ground.

Growing up in Illinois it felt like the opposite was often true -- the coldest of winters tended to also be the driest. Might just be skewed memory since they were miserable.
