Texas Panhandle Fall and the Texas Allmanac Copy

If the Farmers’ Almanac has predicted correctly, Texans will see “warmer-than-average” temperatures this fall.

The almanac, which has been predicting weather (with varying accuracy) since 1818, recently released its extended weather forecast for this fall.

“Your trek to the pumpkin patch may be a bit steamy this year,” the almanac says. “It looks as if The Old Farmer’s Almanac is predicting a warmer-than-normal autumn this year! In fact, it should be quite warm for the western half of the United States!”

From western Wisconsin and Illinois to the West Coast, the Farmers’ Almanac has forecast above-average temperatures. Luckily, most of Texas — all but far West Texas and the Panhandle — is also expected to see above-normal precipitation, which could cool things down or make Texans feel as if they’re ingredients in a giant pressure cooker.
The three-month outlook from the National Weather Service’s Climate Prediction Center has a similar forecast, with higher temperatures, though it expects precipitation in Texas to be average.
