Kentucky’s 2024-2025 Frymire Forecast Predicts Snow on New Year’s Eve
Here it is! For Kentuckians who love winter weather, this has been an annual tradition in the Commonwealth for decades. We just got our hands on the latest edition- the 2024-2025 Frymire Winter Weather Forecast.
WHAT IS THE FRYMIRE FORECAST?
The Frymire Forecast was the brainchild and creation of Dick Frymire. Dick, who lived in Irvington, Kentucky, used a Japanese Elm tree and a special predictive formula built around it to predict winter weather patterns here in the Commonwealth. Dick's process was so unique that it ultimately landed him guest spots on national late night television shows and gained him worldwide recognition.
Though he passed away in 2013, his family has kept his legacy and the Frymire Forecast tradition alive! This year's forecast, for instance, was created by J.L. Frymire and Hannah Frymire-White. J.L. is Dick's son. Hannah is J.L.'s daughter and Dick's granddaughter.
WHAT DOES THIS YEAR'S FRYMIRE FORECAST SAY?
As you'll see, the 2024-2025 Frymire Winter Weather Forecast is calling for a relatively calm and mild winter. Kentuckians (like me) who aren't fans of big snows will love this forecast. Kentuckians who love snow and making those bread and milk runs at the grocery, won't really dig it. The biggest snow of the season looks to be on February 5th and that's just a six-inch snow. Historically, the Frymire Forecast has called for some monster snowfalls. But, not this year.
But here's a bit of fun news for all you snow lovers in the state. While it doesn't look like there will be a white Christmas, it's entirely possible that we'll be ringing in the New Year with some snow.
