The Lehigh Valley could be in for a snowy, cold winter, if the latest Farmer’s Almanac predictions come to fruition.

Almanac warns that cold and snow could arrive as early as September in some regions. A significant cold snap is expected to grip much of the country in mid-January, followed by another deep freeze in mid-February.

The newest Farmers’ Almanac outlook calls for dramatic temperature swings, widespread precipitation, and early snowfall. The winter has been dubbed the season of “chill, snow, repeat."
