Farmers' Almanac winter forecast for 2024-2025: Wet, milder, longer season for much of US
Winter is coming – a wetter one than usual, the farmers' almanac predicts. much of the country will have average or warmer temperatures, but states in central us and by the great lakes will be colder..
After what was the warmest winter on record , the upcoming winter should be wet and milder for most of the U.S., according to the Farmers' Almanac .
The 208th edition of the Farmers' Almanac, out now, foresees a "Wet Winter Whirlwind," for the upcoming 2024-2025 winter season. "It definitely looks more wet than white in many areas," Farmers' Almanac Editor Sandi Duncan told USA TODAY. "Obviously, depending on where you live, there might be more white than wet, but we're focusing in on the wet winter ahead."
The climate pattern known as La Niña – likely to emerge in the September-November period, the Climate Prediction Center said in a recent forecast – could result in a warmer winter than normal in much of the country, she said.
Average or above normal temperatures are forecast for New England, the Northeast, the Southern Plains, the Southeast and the Atlantic Coast regions.
"The coldest temperatures look like they're going to be over the North Central States into the Great Lakes area," Duncan said.
Most of the nation can expect a wet Thanksgiving holiday, too, "except for way out in the Southwest," she said. And Christmas "looks wet rather than white for most areas."
The end of January gets a red flag for much of the nation due to the potential of "a very active storm track" expected to bring strong and gusty winds, along with heavy precipitation – "copious amounts of snow, rain, sleet, and ice (depending on where you live) could fall," the Almanac says.
The winter chill is expected to "hang on" longer than usual in the North, Northeast and middle of the U.S. "So it looks like it's going to feel like a longer winter, even if it's a little warmer in certain areas that usually get snowier conditions," she said.

La Niña: Hurricane season could be 'extremely active' with arrival of climate pattern
Did the Farmers' Almanac get its winter weather prediction right last year?
Not if you consider the Almanac's overall forecast of a cold 2023-2024 winter because it was the warmest on record . However, the Almanac notes it hit on some of its predictions including heavy show and blizzard conditions from Colorado to the Plains that threatened Christmas holiday travel.
The Almanac's forecast paralleled a weather pattern described by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration as "a swatch of cooler-than-average temperatures across the central part of the country in January."
The Farmers' Almanac, which originated in 1818, says its longtime fans claim the publication's weather predictions are accurate approximately 80%-85% of the time . It uses "a top-secret mathematical and astronomical formula , taking sunspot activity, tidal action, the position of the planet, and many other factors into consideration," the Almanac states.
Should you base your plans on the Farmers' Almanac – or the Old Farmer's Almanac , due out later this month? Russ Schumacher, a professor and climatologist at Colorado State University, was skeptical he told the Coloradoan in 2022
"They attract attention and get people talking about it. But a lot of times what they do is use general phrases that are true most any year," he said.
"What does 'glacial and snow-filled' for our area mean? Is that we get a few days of really cold weather and some snow? That happens pretty much every winter,'' he said.
The Farmers' Almanac still makes for an interesting read. Here's a closer look at its regional winter forecasts (click on a link to go directly to that region's forecast).
Northeast, New York | Midwest, Ohio and Michigan | Pacific Northwest | North Central | Southeast, Florida | Texas, South Central | California, Southwest
Northeast, New York: 'Active time' for storms in late January
Winter in the New England and the Northeast region (Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Vermont) will be stormy with above-normal amounts of precipitation and near- to above-normal temperatures, according to the Almanac. "Obviously, in the mountainous areas, we do see some good opportunities for that winter precipitation to turn white," Duncan said.
An early start to winter is expected with a coastal storm along the Atlantic Seaboard in the first week of December bringing mixed precipitation, then very cold temperatures. Much of New England and New York can expect a few inches of snow from a "fast-moving clipper system" in mid-January; the rest of the region gets rains and a wintry mix.
The end of January will be "a very active time," for the region with a big storm dropping six or more inches of snow to Delaware, Maryland and parts of Pennsylvania and New Jersey, "with some lighter amounts in southern New York and New England," Duncan said.
Snow storms are predicted into March with one dropping up to 5 inches in mid-March in upstate New York and central and northern New England.
Midwest, Ohio and Michigan: 'Big freeze' in January
The Great Lakes, Ohio Valley and Midwest region (Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio, Wisconsin) can expect periods of wet snow and rain to begin in early November, with "frigidly cold" temperatures through Nov. 11. Rain and wet snow continues to Thanksgiving, with a drier forecast toward the end of the year.
"January looks like when the Big Freeze may be on for that area," Duncan said. With "very, very cold" conditions expected, "If you can plan your trip to the Caribbean, I would go then."
In mid-March, a "rapidly moving storm" is expected to bring two to five inches of wet snow to Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and the lower peninsula of Michigan and a wintry mix to Kentucky. The first of April is also predicted to bring cold rain, sleet and wet snow to Kentucky, southern Indiana and southern Ohio.
Northwest: Rain and wet snow for Idaho, Oregon and Washington
The Northwest region (Idaho, Oregon and Washington) will get plenty of showers, with wet snow beginning in early November. A stormy December may yield a possible fair, dry and cold Christmas holiday, then a fair January.
But in early February, a major storm is expected to bring heavy snow to the Bitterroot Range in eastern Idaho "with 12 inches possible."
"So I think it's going to be very wet conditions," Duncan said. "It obviously may not be so bad in the other states in that region."
North Central states, Colorado: 'More like winter'
The North Central states (Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wyoming) will get a gusty Halloween and then snow in the Rockies at the start of November. An early November storm is predicted to bring heavy snow and, after it clears very cold temperatures. After a rainy, snowy Thanksgiving more storms kick off December. But a "generally fair, dry, very cold" Christmas is forecast; unseasonably cold temperatures are predicted to arrive in late January.
"This is where we are saying winter feels a little bit more like winter, with the coldest temperatures of the season and average snowfall," Duncan said. Expect a lot of snow in February, with some generated by that storm forecast for Idaho. A mid-February snowstorm predicted in the Plains could dump heaviest in Kansas.

Southeast, Florida: 'Mild and wet' winter
Southeast states (Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia and West Virginia) overall are expected to be "mild and wet," Duncan said. "But that doesn't mean they will escape Old Man Winter."
A "sharp cold front" in mid-November could bring violent thunderstorms to Tennessee and areas south, followed by a deep freeze. Conditions return to fair and dry before a wet Thanksgiving. An early December coastal storm could bring rain, winds and "very cold air" plus freezing conditions into Florida. A wet Christmas follows.
"We do see some colder conditions and very cold and bitterly cold conditions ending the month (of January) in the Southeast states," Duncan said.
Cold conditions are predicted to continue into February, with a midmonth storm possibly bringing sleet and wet snow to most of the region.
Texas, South Central: Another winter snowstorm predicted
South Central states (Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, New Mexico) and Texas are forecast to have "mild with near to below normal precipitation," Duncan said.
The region is expected to get plenty of rain and wet snow in December, followed by a mostly fair January.
But the beginning of February will be "very unsettled, with some snow, possibly … up to 6 inches" in Texas, she said.
A wet Mardi Gras could be upcoming, too, according to the Almanac.
California, Southwest: 'Fair, dry, very chilly' Christmas
Southwest states (Arizona, California, Nevada and Utah) are forecast to have average temperatures and precipitation, a possible break from last winter's atmospheric rivers . A dry Thanksgiving is followed by rain and snow showers and a "fair, dry, very chilly" Christmas season is forecast.
Heavy snow in the mountains in late January could lead to storms to the east.
With colder conditions also forecast in the Southeast, and Midwest and a major storm in the Northwest at the beginning of February, "the end of January (and) beginning of February, for most of the country, looks like something you just may want to put on the calendar," Duncan said.

With Purple Line's opening on the horizon, development has already started along the line
![travel time from indianapolis to cleveland Portrait of Tyler Spence](https://www.indystar.com/gcdn/authoring/authoring-images/2024/06/03/PIND/73958088007-headshot.jpg?crop=1999,2000,x0,y0&width=48&height=48&format=pjpg&auto=webp)
Tyrone McNary sits at a bus stop on a warm summer afternoon on East 38th St. He is leaving his job at Goodwill Commercial Services to attend auto mechanic classes on Indianapolis’s far eastside in the evening. It will take him two hours and two buses to get there.
McNary started his day on an IndyGo bus ride at 4 a.m. Now, he hopes class will end in time for him to catch the last bus to Fall Creek, which leaves at 9 p.m.
"I have to get Uber when I miss it, which gets expensive," McNary said.
The Purple Line will be IndyGo’s second bus rapid transit line after the Red Line. When the line begins running this fall, it will connect downtown Indianapolis east to Fort Benjamin Harrison with dedicated bus lanes and signal priority at busy intersections, significantly shortening trip times. Buses will run every 10 to 15 minutes.
In many respects, McNary is like many other city bus riders, whose journeys are characterized by watching the clock and sitting in traffic. But for him and others who ride a 15.2 mile path from Lawrence to downtown Indianapolis, using 38th Street as their east-west connector, the incoming Purple Line could be a game-changer.
Bus rapid transit aims to include the benefits of a conventional light rail system, where trains run above ground on grade-separated lines. After the Indiana legislature banned Indianapolis from building light rail in exchange for the ability to raise income taxes for transit through a ballot initiative in 2014, Indy’s public transit leaders looked to alternative solutions.
In some respects, BRT may be a better bet than light rail. It is often a fraction of the upfront cost of light rail, despite arguments that it may be more expensive to operate BRT over time than light rail. BRT also takes less time to build. Additionally, Indy’s BRT has already successfully inspired transit-oriented development, one of the main highlights of light rail, along the soon-to-be-opened Purple Line.
BRT can also act as a proof of concept for future transit expansion. Indianapolis is a car-centric city and if residents here choose quality transit, further investment could be warranted.
The Purple Line investment has already transformed the city's makeup, which can be life-changing for some residents.
What used to be a vacant lot along the Purple Line now houses a manufacturing site of Cook Medical devices, opened in partnership with Goodwill. The center employs members of Goodwill’s New Beginnings program for formerly incarcerated people, of which McNary is a part.
Kent Kramer, the CEO of Goodwill of Central and Southern Indiana, said the location along the Purple Line was essential when choosing the facility's location.
“If it wasn’t on a bus line, and in this case, the future Purple Line, we probably would have went into a different area,” Kramer said.
The same plot of land now also houses a grocery store also run by Goodwill, something not previously found in the neighborhood dominated by dollar stores and fast food. Kramer said the grocery store will also allow access to fresh produce for those taking public transit.
The Eskenazi Health Center at 38th and Arlington is another highlight intentionally built close to the Purple Line. The facility also transformed a vacant paved lot into a green space open to the neighborhood.
Transportation is often one of the most significant barriers to healthcare and employment, and Kramer was committed to eliminating that barrier. Between 10% and 14% of Americans don’t own a car or have reliable access to one , which makes public transportation a critical tool for completing everyday activities. Kramer said that around 30% of the manufacturing facility and grocery store employees use IndyGo regularly.
“Some of them are on a bus for more than an hour between all the different transfers,” Kramer said.
With stops at the Indiana State Fairgrounds and along E. 38th St up to the Lawrence campus of Ivy Tech Community College, the 15.2-mile line will be within walking distance of more than 50,000 residents and more than 100,000 jobs. The line will also connect the two largest Indy area Ivy Tech campuses in downtown and Lawrence, creating an easy connection for students and faculty.
“Improved rapid transit not only facilitates easier commutes for our students, faculty, and staff but also fosters greater connectivity across the city,” Ivy Tech Indianapolis Chancellor Dr. Stacy Atkinson said.
IndyGo’s BRT also aims to add something severely missing in the city— density. Despite being the largest city in the state, Indianapolis has nearly the same density as cities a fraction of its size, like Muncie and New Castle. Indy is one of the least dense major cities in the Midwest, nearly six times less dense than Chicago and less than half as dense as Milwaukee.
Density allows cities to do more by using less land. Denser cities spend less on infrastructure like roads, water and sewer lines, and fire departments for a given area, while tax revenue increases without raising rates.
Neighborhood change isn't without controversy. Residents in suburban-style single-family neighborhoods can hesitate to support new apartment buildings. Megan Vukusich, director of the Department of Metropolitan Development, said these suburban-style communities will undergo a cultural shift as well as a physical one.
Even with the right conditions, increasing the density of a neighborhood can not happen overnight, Vukusich said.
“While density and connectivity are expected along the corridor, the changes to the zoning code cannot force people or businesses out, meaning that dramatic changes are expected to take a long time,” Vukusich said.
Zoning along the line changed in 2021 when the city adopted an ordinance to allow more flexibility in housing types and require pedestrian-friendly design features.
The Red and Purple Lines have both seen increases in multi-family residential development near the stations.
Housing near transit has become a key consideration for those looking for residences and allows for growth while mitigating additional traffic. Growing up instead of out also saves space on the ever-expanding outer rim of the city, where farmland has been developed into single-family houses.
The Purple Line and the city’s initiatives aim to incentivize living close to the bus route. Like living near a park or a school, living near transit is its own perk. The Center for Transit-Oriented Development estimates the demand for transit-adjacent housing will nearly triple in the next twenty years, and many real estate platforms like Trulia have built platforms to help home shoppers find housing near transit.
After the Purple Line opens for passengers this fall, IndyGo’s focus will turn to the construction of its third BRT line—the Blue Line, which will travel from Cumberland through downtown to the Indianapolis International Airport. Construction on the route, which almost died in the most recent session of the Indiana General Assembly, is scheduled to start in 2025 with an anticipated 2027 start of the Blue Line. For now, Tyrone McNary eagerly awaits the debut of the Purple Line. As his bus heads east down E. 38th Street, he can look out the window and see the construction.
Soon enough, McNary and his bus will ride in the lane currently blocked off with cones to cut his commute time in half. McNary won’t have as much time to listen to music, but he doesn’t mind.

The ‘Orgasm Gap’ Isn’t Going Away for Straight Women
A new study suggests they still have fewer orgasms during sex than men do, even with age and experience.
![travel time from indianapolis to cleveland An illustration of two people hugging. One person has purple and orange stars and wavy lines across their body. The other person does not have the stars and wavy lines across their body.](https://static01.nyt.com/images/2024/08/13/well/05WELL-ORGASM-GAP/05WELL-ORGASM-GAP-articleLarge.jpg?quality=75&auto=webp&disable=upscale)
By Catherine Pearson
Sex researchers and therapists have long known that women in heterosexual relationships tend to have fewer orgasms than men do. A large new study suggests that this “orgasm gap” persists — and does not improve with age.
The Numbers
The research, published recently in the journal Sexual Medicine, found that across all ages, men of all sexual orientations reported higher orgasm rates during sex — from 70 to 85 percent — compared with 46 to 58 percent for women. Lesbian and bisexual women between ages 35 and 49 reported higher orgasm rates than their heterosexual counterparts.
The analysis included data from eight Singles in America surveys, which are funded and conducted by Match.com annually in collaboration with The Kinsey Institute, the sexuality and relationships research program at Indiana University. The sample included more than 24,000 single Americans between the ages of 18 and 100.
Researchers were especially interested in the question of whether orgasm rates vary by age. Amanda Gesselman, a research scientist with the Kinsey Institute and lead author on the study, said she thought the team might find evidence that the orgasm gap narrows as women develop confidence and learn what they like (and, perhaps, their partners develop skills to help pleasure them).
However, while older gay and bisexual men and lesbian women did have higher orgasm rates, “we really didn’t see evidence of closing the orgasm gap overall,” she said, adding that she hopes future studies will explore the age-orgasm connection further.
“We really, as a society, sort of prioritize men’s pleasure and undervalue women’s sexual pleasure,” Dr. Gesselman said. “And I think that contributes to consistent disparities.”
The Limitations
Emily Nagoski, a sex educator and author of the book “Come Together” — who did not work on the new study — said a limitation of the study was that the survey asked: “When having sexual intercourse in general, what percentage of the time do you usually have an orgasm?” But it did not provide a more specific definition of what “sexual intercourse” means.
Research shows the majority of women require some form of clitoral stimulation in order to orgasm. So if straight women defined “sexual intercourse” as vaginal penetration alone, it makes sense that there was a significant gap in orgasm rates, she said.
A more revealing question might be, “What percentage of the sex you have do you like?” Dr. Nagoski said. “Orgasm is not the measure of a sexual encounter. Pleasure is the measure of a sexual encounter.”
Ultimately, what matters is that people spend time figuring out what makes a satisfying sexual encounter for them — which often includes things like connection, trust and comfort, said Kristen Mark, professor at the Eli Coleman Institute for Sexual and Gender Health at the University of Minnesota.
“There are so many ways to experience sexual pleasure, so it’s important not to equate the orgasm gap to a pleasure gap,” she added.
Dr. Mark said that may be especially true later in life, when factors like the hormonal changes that occur during menopause, a partner’s erectile problems or other health challenges can make it difficult for women to reliably orgasm during sex — but they might still be enjoying the sex they are having.
What Progress Looks Like
At the same time that sex researchers and experts are calling for a more nuanced understanding of what makes sex “successful,” they express frustration at the fact that heterosexual women of all ages are still not having as many orgasms as their partners.
Laurie Mintz, a professor of psychology at the University of Florida and author of “Becoming Cliterate: Why Orgasm Equality Matters — and How to Get It,” said the study’s findings underscore the need for comprehensive sex education. But that’s not enough.
Women need to figure out what they find pleasurable, and then feel confident and comfortable communicating that to their partners, Dr. Mintz said. That requires an attitude that conveys “I deserve pleasure as much as my partner,” she added — and it also requires a partner who is receptive and open. Dr. Mintz acknowledged that both are easier said than done, calling the orgasm gap an “insidious” byproduct of patriarchal attitudes toward sex.
Women who are unable to orgasm, or who are simply not having sex that feels good, can talk to their general practitioner, Dr. Mark added — though she lamented that it tends to fall on patients, not medical professionals, to initiate conversations about sexual health. And she acknowledged that most doctors get little if any training in sexual health. Still, “it’s their job to meet you where you are and find you the resources you need,” Dr. Mark said. For instance, issues like dryness and pain during sex after menopause — which can make orgasms elusive — are treatable.
But she and other sexual health experts emphasized that there are larger issues at play. Among them, the lingering idea that women’s sexual pleasure is somehow secondary.
“It can be fixed,” Dr. Mintz said. “It’s going to take education, and empowerment, and acceptance of vibrators and lubricants, and using the word ‘clitoris’ — and all of that.”

What to Know About Your Sexual Health
Sexual health can be an important part of personal well-being. the information below can help you demystify this often misunderstood topic..
A new study suggests women in heterosexual relationships still have fewer orgasms during sex than men do, even with age and experience, creating an “orgasm gap.”

Harris to embark on a seven-state campaign blitz with her VP pick
Vice President Kamala Harris will set out this week on a swing-state campaign blitz, giving her a far heavier travel schedule than her opponent, former President Donald Trump.
It will be a critical week for Harris, who is rushing to introduce herself to voters with just three months until Election Day. It will also be the first time she will appear with her yet-to-be-announced running mate.
Starting Tuesday, Harris will campaign across seven swing states over five days, one of the heaviest weeks of campaign-related travel in the general election.
Her team has vetted six contenders to be her running mate: Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, Sen. Mark Kelly of Arizona, Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz.
Walz, Shapiro and Kelly each met separately with Harris on Sunday, according to a source familiar with the meetings.
Harris is set to appear alongside her running mate for the first time Tuesday in Philadelphia , where the pair will kick off the cross-country tour.
Her travel swing is a stark contrast to the pace of Trump and President Joe Biden. Trump has delivered remarks in 10 states since the June 27 debate, while Biden traveled to campaign stops in eight states during the final 24 days of his candidacy. Harris’ travel this week will take her to seven states in less than a fourth of the time.
Harris will visit five states that she and Biden flipped blue in 2020: Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, Georgia and Arizona. She will also make stops in North Carolina, which Biden lost by a slim margin, and Nevada, where Democrats won narrowly.
The trip highlights the generational gap between Harris compared with Biden and Trump, Democratic allies said.
Biden’s candidacy was consistently plagued by voter concerns about his age, and his final weeks as the presumptive nominee were punctuated by a stream of congressional Democrats urging him to pass the torch to a new generation.
“Age really does matter” when it comes to a candidate’s ability to commit to long campaign trips, said Amanda Renteria, who was the national political director for Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign.
Harris, 59, is a generation younger than Trump, 78, and Biden, 81.
In 2020, Biden was the oldest presidential winner in history. If elected, Trump would be the oldest sitting president by the end of his term.
“It is amazing what candidates can do when they’re traveling around, and you don’t know what time it is, and you don’t know what day it is, but everyone’s in it,” she said. “And you can only sustain that for so long. And when you’re at the age of Trump, I don’t know how you keep up with that.”
Trump is scheduled this week to hold a rally Friday and deliver remarks at a dinner in Montana, a state he won in 2020 with 56.9% of the vote. He is also scheduled to hold a fundraiser Saturday in Colorado, which Biden won by a similar margin in 2020. Neither state is considered to be a swing state.
Reached for comment, Trump campaign communications director Steven Cheung pointed to the overall difference in the number of Trump and Harris campaign trips.
"In this cycle, President Trump has by far visited more battleground states, held more rallies, held more fundraisers, done more interviews and engaged with local reporters," Cheung said of Trump, who launched his campaign more than a year and a half before Harris became the presumptive Democratic nominee.
"Kamala Harris can’t even give a simple media interview since she was anointed the Democrat nominee," he continued. Harris has not held a sit-down media interview since Biden dropped out of the race on July 21, though she has answered journalists' questions in media gaggles.
In the days after Biden's widely panned June debate in Georgia, his campaign was in damage control mode. Biden spoke at a North Carolina rally and traveled to fundraisers in New York, New Jersey and Virginia before he held a rally in Wisconsin.
His next campaign trips were to Pennsylvania, Michigan and Nevada, the last of which was cut short when he contracted Covid. Days later, he dropped out of the race.
Democratic National Committee spokesperson Abhi Rahman said that if Biden had stayed in the race, "I'm sure that there would have been blitzes like this, as well."
But now "there's definitely a lot of desire to make sure that the vice president is defining herself and her VP before Republicans get a chance to," Rahman said. "So the timing of this definitely goes with that."
When Biden was the presumptive nominee, the Trump campaign aimed many of its attacks at his cognitive ability, leaning into voters' concerns about his age. But with Harris' being a generation younger than Trump, Republicans have had to pivot their approach.
"I think she's making a point of her relative youth and vitality," said Bill Galston, a Brookings Institution fellow and official in President Bill Clinton's administration. "It's a point that she doesn't have to talk about because she's just showing it."
Harris' campaign swing is also consistent with how candidates typically pick up the pace as the election draws closer, said Aleigha Cavalier, a Democratic strategist at the strategy and marketing agency Precision Strategies. But she said Harris' travel pace compared to Trump's and Biden's is "a real advantage."
"I think the fact that she's willing and able to do this many events in a small amount of time is something that can make a real difference, especially when we're less than a hundred days out" from the election, Cavalier said.
Traveling for campaign events can create more opportunities for local media coverage, accelerate fundraising and identify potential future volunteers, said Eric Jaye, a Democratic consultant at Storefront Political Media, a campaign consulting firm. But most important, candidates are activating thousands of "micro-influencers" at rallies, he said.
"They're all holding up their phones, and they're all publishers," he said, adding that when rallygoers post pictures of themselves with a candidate, "that will go out to their networks, which is an endorsement for their networks."
"If you can get 10,000 people to share that they trust Kamala Harris, that has an impact as a form of media and communication in and of itself," Jaye said. "So essentially these are conventions of micro-influencers."
Already, the Harris campaign has touted a groundswell of volunteer support, noting in a memo released Saturday that over the previous 12 days, volunteers had placed 2.3 million phone calls and knocked on 172,000 doors.
The seven-state tour “shows that she has a ton of energy,” Renteria said. “It shows that her campaign is ready to go and is thinking through things and able to execute well. So it’s super exciting.”
