Get Ready For A Mild Winter In North Carolina, According To The Old Farmers’ Almanac, It May Actually Be Gorgeous
Good news, North Carolina: After years of winter weather predictions that called for harsh, frigid conditions in the Tar Heel State, the Old Farmer’s Almanac’s prediction for the upcoming 2020-2021 winter is quite the opposite. It fact, at times it may be downright gorgeous.
Prepare for a winter filled with warmer than usual temps, bluer skies, less precipitation, and more opportunities to spend time out of doors without shivering.
In contrast, the Almanac's Canadian forecast literally has a snow train predicted from west to east and it barely reaches into the Northeastern U.S. So it appears, even many of the Northeastern United States will be spared harsh conditions this year.
In specific locales with high elevations, like Beech Mountain, for instance, temperatures are typically 10-15 degrees cooler than the valleys below. So chins up, North Carolina. If you want to see the snow, you'll be able to find some.
But for the rest of the state... it should be warmer than usual and we can also expect less rain.
What would you prefer to see this winter? More and more snow? Or are you happy with this forecast from the Old Farmer’s Almanac? Join the discussion in our Facebook comments!
