Recently, a weather analyst warned about a brutally cold January for the midwest. Is the Old Farmer's Almanac predicting the same thing?

According to the Old Farmer's Almanac, it will be very frigid in January - and even colder than usual. Per their predictions, it will be frigid for the first week of the new year.

Yes, it usually is, but this just reinforces that it will be very cold to start out 2025! We will then get a few days of mild temperatures before temperatures drop yet again.

The Old Farmer's Almanac also says that late January will be one of the coldest periods of winter this season. Yikes!

All in all, we will be about one degree below our average in January, which is in the teens. The Old Farmer's Almanac is also predicting a pretty snowy month as well!
