It's the end of a hot and dry summer....so I thought I'd cool us off with a winter forecast---
According to the new issue of Farmers Almanac for USA---

If you live in New England---"you'll get a cold slap in the face".

Upper Midwest and Great Lakes area---"are expected to get the piles of snow that'll be lacking elsewhere."

Rest of USA---"colder than normal but overall a kinder and gentler winter than last year."

All I can say is that I'm heading back to Vermont!

:mrgreen: We only go for foliage visits in the Fall and to do a little genealogy and meet up with some very shirt tail relatives in the little town of Jeffersonville. Anybody on here from that neck of the woods who could give me a heads up on the upcoming fall colors?

After 4.5 feet of snow in Washington, DC where no one knows how to drive in rain much less snow. I'll gladly take cold and nooooooooo snooooooow!

Obviously the people who wrote that almanac haven't spent a winter in La Pine Oregon. :lol: :lol:

We have had enough moisture falling from the sky this year!!!! We don't need any more.....especially the stuff we have to shovel!

I am all for a kinder gentler winter. Only reason it is one of my favorite times of the years I do not do outside in the winter so have more quilting time.

a cold slap in the face, with rain means ice
yuck!

Yup, read that myself in today's newspaper. Am looking forward to the cold slap; but hope it doesn't last long. Paper said the other day, we have had the warmest Maine summer in over 100 yrs. Just not normal for us.
