Lewiston, ME: Every year since 1818, the Farmers’ Almanac provides an extended weather forecast that helps people plan ahead. This year, with the extreme summer weather conditions broiling the country, and the growing concern over the rising costs of heating oil, Farmers’ Almanac is releasing its winter weather forecast earlier than ever. The 2023 Farmers’ Almanac, which hits the store shelves on August 15, is warning readers that this winter will be filled plenty of shaking, shivering, and shoveling.
How Cold? Shivery temperatures are predicted to rattle warm weather seekers in the Southeast and South Central states, but the real shivers might send people in the Great Lakes areas, Northeast, and North Central regions hibernating. According to the Almanac, the North Central States are forecast to experience extremely cold temperatures, (possibly 40° below zero!) especially during mid-January.
Areas in the western half of the country should escape major shivers, with an overall forecast of brisk temperatures predicted in the Northwest and mild temperatures in the Southwest.
Shovel Worthy The Farmers’ Almanac suggests a stormy winter in on schedule especially for the eastern half of the country. For some areas this may mean snow, but for others it will result in more slush and mush.

I’m just hoping that Europe gets hit very hard. They need to learn a lesson.
Yawn...they can’t get tomorrow’s weather right, much less these long-term forecasts...I would like to see a couple of deep-freezes in New England, though.
40 below? I have personally experienced 37 below in Vermont and 52 below in the Adirondacks...that’s cold, but I’m still here!
Buy an EV and we can regain control of the weather from Israel. 🤔😂✌
More wind from the Farmer’s boys. They haven’t been right lately.
Good. Kill the bugs
Buy an EV? Uh...no.
Those EV batteries work real good in the cold...LOLOLOL
I supplement my oil heat with about a cord of wood - I’ve already got two cords split and stacked.
Did the almanac suggest the three “S” preparation ?
In other words...It's not going to be hot and humid in Upstate NY in winter.
It shut our schools down. Girls were happy.
My sister used 4 cords last winter. My brother used three. A cord is going for a little over 200, but it is good seasoned wood.
Hoping for a little snow here in NW.Ga, didn’t get anything to speak of last winter, at least where wife and I live.
Come on mannnnnnn! Help save muvver erf! 🤣👍 Yeah, me neither.
My neighbor split persimmon seeds two years in a row and found spoons which is supposed to mean lots of snow. We hardly had any snow.
