Ted: "Look at the Wooly Worm my mom found!!! I wanted to eat it!"
If you look closely at wooly worms, you may notice that they aren't all one color. Sometimes they have black hairs on each side of a reddish brown band. Heavy black on the front supposedly means a hard winter while red velvet on the rear means a mild winter.
Or if the wooly has a wide center of brown, then it will be mild winter all the way. If they are light colored in the front and dark in the back, it will be mild and then harsh.
What happens if you can't tell the difference between the front and back of the worm? You'll be just like the rest of us and won't really know what to expect.
Based on what I see in the Pic......I'd buy a parka and a new snow shovel for Hubby :o) .......
Stay Safe !
