You May Not Like These Predictions About Delaware’s Brutally Snowy Upcoming Winter
The Farmer’s Almanac announces their winter forecast in August, and this year the predictions for Delaware are in. While there’s nothing prettier than a gorgeous snowscape, many Delawareans aren’t going to be thrilled with what the Farmer’s Almanac says about the 2017-2018 Delaware winter.
Along with the rest of the Northeast, we're apparently in for a wet, snowy winter.
The Farmer's Almanac makes its predictions using a combination of weather modeling, natural cues, and astronomy. Meteorologists have contested the Almanac's methods before, but in general, the Almanac has a historical accuracy of around 80%.
At least, if you're camping in a Delaware State Park, you'll be able to enjoy the snow without having to worry about driving in it.
There's nothing more lovely - to me - than strolling the beaches in the dead of Delaware winter on one of those clear, high-pressure cold days. If you're also part polar bear, the Alamanac says to keep note of these dates, when they're predicting snow storms will affect our area: January 20-23, February 4-7 & 16-19, and March 1-3 & 20-23. One can only hope!
Delaware’s state parks become winter wonderlands when it snows, and if you bundle up, you don’t have to let the snow keep you inside! You might want to start planning now with our list of the most incredible, breathtaking Winter Hikes in Delaware.
