The ‘Farmer’s Almanac’ says goodbye after 208 years
First printed in 1818, the publication based in Lewiston, Maine, has used sunspots, lunar cycles, and planetary positions to generate its long-range weather forecasts. They predict that winter 2025-2026 will be a “wild ride” with dramatic swings, wintry weather, and a cycle of “chill, snow, repeat.” The season’s coldest temperatures are expected to be in the Northern Plains to New England.
