The Farmers' Almanac has released its long-range prediction for winter 2018. The news won't be good for Pennsylvania, unless you like to go sledding or you drive a four-wheel-drive truck. The publication predicts this winter will be a bit more "normal" as far as the temperatures are concerned, but that isn't necessarily a good thing.

It means Pennsylvania will experience "above-normal" precipitation and that the region will have a "cold-and-snowy" winter. How much snow can we expect in Pennsylvania?



A good amount, the Farmers' Almanac says. From the Great Lakes into the Northeast, snowier-than-normal conditions are expected. We can hear the skiers, boarders, and snowmobilers cheering from here!.

The Farmers' Almanac also is "red-flagging the 2018 dates of January 20-23, February 4-7 & 16-19, and March 1-3 & 20-23 along the Atlantic Seaboard for some heavy precipitation."

Good news for skiers and snow enthusiasts, but for those looking to build sandcastles, not-so-good news, but a good time to book that tropical getaway. Here is the forecast for the next three months:
