Believe it or not, winter is just around the corner. This got us at Strong Man thinking about what the winter may look like so we can be prepared and help you be prepared. So, we did a bit of digging in The Old Farmer’s Almanac to see what lies ahead. And from what we could find, it seems we need to be ready for a winter that is both cold and wet.
According to the editors of the Farmer’s Almanac, we can expect a winter much colder than last year’s with above-normal levels of precipitation. So what does this mean for you? For much of the country, this means you can expect more snow than normal. Some of you might welcome this news with excitement, while for others this news could cause dread and worry. Either way, know that Strong Man has what you need to keep your crews safe through the winter and keep your jobs on track.
Many meteorologists aren’t buying this yet though as they claim it’s still too early to tell, and you may agree. This led us to wonder on how those at the infamous almanac make such predictions years in advance without any modern equipment. After a bit of Strong Man investigation and inquiry, we discovered the answer. The founder of the Farmer’s Almanac, David Young, devised mathematical and astronomical formulas to make his predictions. The formula takes things like sunspot activity, tidal action of the Moon, position of the planets, and a variety of other factors into consideration. There is only one person who knows these formulas today and to keep his identity a secret, they go under the name of Caleb Weatherby. While Mr. Weatherby may be undercover, we here at Strong Man have everything you need for whatever weather and it’s no secret!
