Forget the groundhog, caterpillars predict winter

Category: Uncategorized — admin @ 12:35 pm

Apparently, studying the color bands on the stomachs of caterpillars can determine whether the weather will be mild or harsh come January and February.  At least, that’s according to decades of study by Pat Timm.

 

This year’s research says we are in for an average winter.  Not a ton of snow but not particularly warm either.  

 

The GoodNewsPDX meteorology department, having avidly watched the weather report on local TV news for 25 years, predicts two snowfalls of about 4 inches apiece.  Both times, we anticipate drivers will sink into panic and refuse to go outside.
