Awful. Meanwhile, here in Vermont, so far it’s been warmer than usual. We have had several frost warnings, but as yet not a single solid freeze, which is very unusual in our part of the state.

The Farmer’s Almanac and the woolly bear caterpillars are both forecasting a colder winter than usual. Well, I hope we don’t get anything like this storm in South Dakota. Cows are still out here. They don’t usually leave the pastures until after the first snowfall.

Joe Bastardi says the wet east coast US and the massive snow cover right now in Siberia, means you will get clobbered this winter. Hoping for 10 feet of snow in DC myself.

The woolly bear caterpillars are reliable predictors of a winter? Whodda thunk?
Best send those little guys to the Midwest. No one saw it coming...dead meat everywhere.

No wonderful Wooly Bear Catepillars left in DC/No. Va. The illegals ate them all. Something about them looking like little Enchiladas.

Well, I’ll be. Here in NC mtns we have the wooly worm festival in mid-October. So I guess our caterpillars will soon confirm what yours have already predicted.
