Beware – Farmer’s Almanac Already Predicting Snow for Indiana
Enjoy this weather we have been having while you can because winter is coming to Indiana.
If you're like me, you absolutely loathe winter weather. When you are a kid, it's cool because when it snows a lot (well, a lot for Indiana), you get the day off and enjoy playing in the snow. When you are an adult, you don't get that luxury. You are still expected to get out of that mess and drive to work. Throw in those frigid cold temperatures as another reason why I am not a fan of winter. Now, I realize that we haven't even gotten into fall, and the temperatures really haven't dropped too much yet. However, there are a lot of people who are already looking forward to winter weather here in Indiana.
The Farmer's Almanac is a great resource to find out what the extended weather forecast might be like in your area. The website has already predicted snow for the Hoosier State, and not a tiny amount either.

The Farmer's Almanac says that November looks to be "unusually unsettled," calling for an "early-season heavy snowfall is expected across the North Central states," from November 8th through 11th. Yes, that includes Indiana.
The Farmer's Almanac just released their Winter Outlook Forecast as I was working on writing on this article. Here's what we can expect here in our area:
Above-average precipitation is expected over the eastern third of the country, especially the Great Lakes, Ohio Valley, and Midwest.
I think it's important to keep in mind that this is simply a prediction and no amount of fancy technology, atmospheric tracking, or whatever they use to create this forecast is 100% accurate. As we know all too well, weather is wildly unpredictable and can change in an instant. However, if this prediction is correct, it's going to be quite the winter in Indiana.
