We had a very cool and wet summer last year, a warm and wet winter with no snow, and another cool and wet summer this year. In fact, we didn't get above 80 until late August. It will be interesting to see what we get for weather this winter. I'd like a little bit of snow for Christmas...

Here in nevda we look at the pine trees. If they are really full of pine cones that means a tough winter. ps) Ours is really full this year.

Someone said that the farmer's almanac says hard winter too.

I hope its not going to be cold this year. I moved to Alabama from NJ to escape the cold winters and last year I almost froze to death! I don't remember NJ winters making my body ache as bad as it does here.

Do you think the air is more humid there? I hate those damp cold days and here in Ohio we have lots of those. It's rained almost every day for a few weeks.

I live in north Florida and my miniature ponies got their winter coats almost OVERNIGHT about a month ago, even though the temperature was still about 99 degrees every day. I think it's going to be a cold winter!
