Farmers' Almanac Predicts Numbing Cold This Winter
Americans, you might want to check on their sweaters and shovels _ the Farmers' Almanac is predicting a cold winter for many of you.
The venerable almanac's 2010 edition, which goes on sale Tuesday, says numbing cold will predominate in the country's midsection, from the Rocky Mountains in the West to the Appalachians in the East.
Managing Editor Sandi Duncan says it's going to be an "ice cold sandwich."
"We feel the middle part of the country's really going to be cold _ very, very cold, very, very frigid, with a lot of snow," she said. "On the East and West coasts, it's going to be a little milder. Not to say it's going to be a mild short winter, but it'll be milder compared to the middle of the country."
