Fortunately, the new 2013 Canadian Farmers? Almanac hits store shelves this month and promises on its cover to answer whether or not the warm, dry trend will continue, or if winter will stage a comeback.
According to this favored long-range weather publication, winter will return to some ? but not all ? areas.
It will be a ?winter of contraries? shares editor Peter Geiger, Philom, adding, ?It?s like Old Man Winter is cutting the country in half. The eastern half of Canada will see plenty of cold and snow. The western half will experience relatively warm and dry conditions.?
According to the Canadian Farmers? Almanac, areas from Alberta and Saskatchewan east into the Maritimes will see a colder than normal winter with many locations experiencing above normal precipitation.
But for British Columbia ? chiefly those areas west and south of the Rocky Mountains ? the overall winter will be milder and drier than normal.
