"Honey, not going to work today..."
Let me go ask the 2 year old kid next door, she will have as good a forecast as F.A.
Na it’s just Winter ,LOL
Around here, people use Wooly Worms to predict the severity of the upcoming winter.
Our Summer is a pile of crap
BRING! IT!!!!!!
That’s okay, because Biden told me to invest in heat pumps and solar power. I’ll be fine! /s
Oh noes. 🥶
Last winter in PA was amazing. Very mild temps. Best February ever!
Fifty years ago such a prediction would be used as proof we were entering THE COMING ICE AGE!
Whoopee.
Compared to Deep State, Mama Nature is a piker.
Sounds like their fcst for the last winter. Here in midcoast Maine, the road was plowed only 3 times and one was marginal. But we’re probably overdue for a snowy winter. 5 or 6 years ago we got about 22 ft. during the season.
Bottom line, winter happens.
No.
It’s weather.
Weather happens.
Oh boy........ my subject of extreme expertise!!!
I studied Wooly worms extensively and collected hundreds to examine the color of the bands. I wanted to learn if there was actually a correlation between color variation and weather severity. The color variation was compared to NOAA weather statistics for the winter months.
There are thirteen segments to the caterpiller and thirteen weeks of winter.
My conclusion is that there is no correlation between the color variation and the severity of the winter.
As a matter of fact, people often find a solid black wooly worm and conclude that really bad weather is coming. As it turns out, that is a totally erroneous conclusion. The solid black wooly worm is in fact another and completely different species.
Having examined and recorded the coloration of literally hundreds of the wooly worm species Isia isabella, I can say with certainty that there are no solid black individuals of that species.
I can say with certainty that I found no correlation between color variation and the weather
If interested, Freep mail me
Must be, same as when I was a kid up there in the 70’s and 80’s, climate change every winter!
If you look at the temperature averages for the year, the last two weeks of January and the first two weeks of February and the coldest of the year. By mid Feb the average high and low temperatu4es starts rising.
Ihope some of that snow makes its way to central Indiana.
Why I live in Arizona...☺ I hate winters, hate cold, hate ice, frigid blowing winds. I stay active so snow and cold azz winters are no bueno!
We’ll be in the mid to high 80s/low 90s for the next 10 days. Winters here can get cold, but very doable compared to most venues...Cold is a flat out deal breaker for me.
Winter’s going to be cold. Followed by hot summer. We live in an age of miracles.
My now deceased brother used to love deep snowstorms so he could mess around with the snowblowers he refurbished. He was disappointed those winters if he rarely or didnt use them.
