I wouldn't lose any sleep over this if I were you (yet), but Illinois is being warned to brace itself for a major winter storm that is allegedly coming for one specific week in January of 2025.
When you live in the Midwest, there's always the possibility that weather will throw you a surprise on or around Thanksgiving. One of the Farmer's Almanacs has just shared their prediction for what the Land of Lincoln can expect once we get to the season when all the turkeys are nervous.
It's almost like a game show in Missouri. It's the guessing game where everybody makes a prediction about when the state will get its first real snowfall. Farmer's Almanac thinks it knows the answer about whether or not Missouri will get that snow on or before Thanksgiving in their brand new outlook.
Hold on a second. I need to catch my breath from laughing (or was that crying?) after I just saw that Farmer's Almanac is predicting snow for Illinois. Yes, I checked. It's still August. What the?
We haven't even started March in Missouri, but Farmer's Almanac is peering even further into the future with a prediction of big snow possible for the Show Me State in April...sort of.
