Signs of Winter from The Old Farmer's Almanac
Posted at 3:32 PM on Nov. 6, 2008
From The Old Farmer's Almanc...I thought this was interesting and something we can use for our homeschools...KW<><
Signs of Winter
Few things concern the gardener more than the first warning signs of winter. At The Old Farmer’s Almanac, we employ scientific disciplines to predict the weather but also believe in keeping a close eye on nature. The following are all considered traditional signs of a severe winter ahead:
- Geese fly south at a high altitude.
- Oak trees bear many acorns.
- Chipmunks are abundant.
- Lakes and rivers freeze later than usual.
- Onions grow thicker skins than usual.
- Squirrels are gathering a large supply of nuts.
- Woodpeckers appear early.
- Lots of berries.
- Corn husks are thicker and stronger.
What’s in store for your winter? For our Web site visitors, we have provided two months of free weather forecasts.
