Wet and cold. That's the Farmers' Almanac prediction for for the 2024-25 winter.
The same week Pumpkin Spice hits the shelves and nighttime adventures require a light jacket, the Farmers' Almanac hits us with Winter weather predictions.
The Forecast
According to this year's Almanac, Winter throughout the Northeast and New England will be stormy with "above-normal amounts of winter precipitation and near-to above-normal temperatures."
Mountainous areas will get the most snow. While the I-95 corridor will see more sleet and rain.
When Will It Hit?
December 21st is the astronomical start of winter aka the winter solstice. But the coldest outbreaks are expected at the end of January into the beginning of February. That's when the Almanac predicts that the Artic air will bring "a sharp plunge in temperatures almost nationwide."
Important Winter Dates
WMMR has a slew dates for you to add to your calendar this Fall / Winter. First up, the MMRBQ is exactly one month away on September 21st. Preston & Steve's Camp Out For Hunger is set for December 2nd - 6th. The last date we is not officially set yet, but signs are pointing to Preston & Steve's Cardboard Classic happening the last week of February.
