Meteorologists are cautious about predicting the weather for the winter of 2024/25, but the 100-year calendar provides a clear forecast based on the weather in November. Meteorologists emphasize that weather forecasts for the winter of 2024/25 are just trends based on various weather models and datasets. However, the 100-year calendar gives a bold winter forecast based on common farmer’s rules, explaining how November weather can influence the winter.
The 100-year weather calendar, also known as the farmer’s calendar, was created in the 17th century by Abbot Mauritius Knauer. It relies on observations, experiences, and planetary constellations for its predictions. While not scientifically proven, the 100-year calendar suggests that a lot of fog in November could mean a snowy winter ahead. This prediction may excite winter and snow enthusiasts, especially as foggy mornings have been observed in late October.
Contrary to the farmer’s rules, meteorologists have already made initial forecasts for the winter of 2024/25. According to the CFS model, Germany is expected to have a very mild winter. However, another farmer’s rule suggests that October weather can also influence the winter. Two predictions from the 100-year calendar already indicate snow in winter.
In addition to snow forecasts, other farmer’s rules suggest that November weather can have various impacts on winter:
– If the leaves hang on until November, the winter will be long.
– If water freezes in November, January will be wetter.
– If the tree keeps its leaves for a long time, a late winter is expected.
While the 100-year calendar does not provide specific details on what these implications mean, it does warn of frost on November 1st. This could indicate the onset of significant cold weather, possibly leading to the first ground frost. However, the scientific validity of farmer’s rules remains uncertain, and the actual impact of November weather on the winter of 2024/25 is yet to be seen.
It will be interesting to see how the weather unfolds in November and whether it will indeed influence the winter of 2024/25. While farmer’s rules cannot be scientifically proven, some predictions from the 100-year calendar have been accurate in the past. Overall, there has been a lack of snow in recent years, as reported by echo24.de.
