OOOOOHHHHH, fall is my favorite season!

Crunchy leaves, sweaters, PUMPKIN SPICE EVERYTHING, cider, windows open, harvest, I LOVE IT ALL.

My apple-picking trip and visit to the cider mill just might be a little cooler than usual for us this fall, according to the Old Farmer’s Almanac.

The publication, which released its annual fall forecast, is predicting below-average temperatures for Ohio.

Most Ohioans can expect to see above-average precipitation this fall, the almanac predicts, with the exception of Northwest Ohio, which can expect below-average precipitation.

The Old Farmer’s Almanac, which began in 1792, has made a name for itself by providing long-term weather forecasts on an annual basis.

What’s the average fall temperature in Ohio?

Here’s what a typical fall season looks like in the region, according to the National Weather Service:

  • September: 67.2 degrees
  • October: 55 degrees
  • November: 43.6 degrees
  • December: 34.5 degrees

Is the Old Farmer’s Almanac accurate?

The Old Farmer’s Almanac boasts an average accuracy of about 80% for its weather reports. But many weather experts disagree with the predictions, saying the Almanac’s weather reports may be no better than chance.
