New York City predicts coldest and longest winter in recent years

Get ready to wrap yourself up. A very cold winter awaits New York, according to Farmer's Almanac weather forecast for 2021-2022. Silive... The forecast is accompanied by a warning - to prepare for the "severe frost season". Much of the United States will experience chilling temperatures below traditional averages.

“The coming winter may very well be one of the longest and coldest winters we've seen in years,” said Janice Stillman, editor of Farmer's Almanac.

In the Atlantic Corridor, which includes New York, winter temperatures will be below normal on average.

Be sure to prepare winter coats, scarves, gloves, and hats this winter. The coldest periods will be during almost all of December, as well as in mid-January and from early to mid-February.

Winter will be cold, but not very snowy. Farmer's Almanac recommends cooking shovels in mid to late December, early to mid January, and mid March.

Winter storms, snowstorms and sub-normal temperatures for the region are expected in New York City from January to March next year, according to the annual long-term forecast for the coming winter.

Farmer's Almanac predicts temperatures close to normal or slightly below normal for the eastern United States. And beware of snowstorms this winter season. Severe winter storms in the northeast are expected in the second week of January, the last week of February and the second week of March. They will bring heavy snowfalls, rains or a mixture of snow and rain.

Weather forecasting methods in Farmer's almanac more than 200 years

Farmer's Almanac editors deny the use of computer and satellite equipment or marmots to predict the weather. Editors follow a specific set of rules developed in 1818. Farmer's Almanac claims that these predictions are 80% accurate.

Traditionally, Farmer's Almanac uses three scientific disciplines to make long-term predictions. This is solar science (the study of sunspots and other solar activity); climatology (study of prevailing weather conditions); and meteorology (study of the state of the atmosphere). It predicts weather and weather events by comparing solar activity patterns and historical weather conditions to current solar activity.

The rules, which are over 200 years old, were developed by the first editor of Farmer's Almanac, David Young. Over time, the rules have been slightly changed and turned into a formula that is both mathematical and astronomical. The formula takes into account the activity of sunspots, the tidal activity of the moon, the position of the planets and other factors.
