The Farmers’ Almanac recently released its weather predictions for winter 2020. And while mild winters are the norm in Mississippi, it looks like this one will be one of the warmest. It’s also likely to be one of the wettest. Read on to learn more about what you can expect this winter.
According to the Farmers’ Almanac, this winter will be pretty brutal… for most of the nation. Mississippi, on the other hand, can expect brisk, above-normal temperatures, so don’t go pulling out that winter wardrobe just yet.
