Farmers know their stuff.....


Last year, the Farmer's Almanac predicted a cold, snowy winter and boy,we're they right! They said most of the snow would be late in the season, Feb. and March and that's exactly what happened, with over 24 inches here in the northeast.
Here's their forecast for April through October:

April and May will be much warmer and drier than normal—great weather for outdoor activities, but raising concern about summer drought.

Summer will be cooler than normal, with the hottest periods in mid- and late July and early to mid-August. Rainfall will be below normal, with the greatest threat of drought in the east.

September and October will be slightly cooler than normal. Tropical moisture in the first part of September will bring above-normal rainfall.

Looks like a dry summer and a wet Fall...we shall see.

  1. The weather sounds good to me, except for the lack of rain. I live in a farm community and the farmers are already saying prayers for rain.
