Fall Forecast Clash: Almanacs vs NOAA | Augusta Georgia News

Fall’s weather forecast is heating up with a showdown between two legendary almanacs: the Old Farmer’s calling for a warmer season with damp patches in the Pacific Northwest and New England, while the Farmers’ predicts a wet, gloomy fall across most of the U.S.—except the Pacific Northwest, which stays dry. Meteorologists remain skeptical, noting long-range forecasts are notoriously unreliable, even within days. NOAA adds its voice, suggesting warmer temps where the almanacs predict cool, and a mixed precipitation outlook with many regions in limbo. The wildcard? A strong El Niño brewing, which could bring warmer, drier weather to the Pacific Northwest and wetter conditions down South, while also influencing hurricanes and West Coast tides. Bottom line: all forecasts are subject to change, and nature’s got plenty of surprises left to throw our way as we head into cooler months.
