I know the last thing you want to think about is a bitterly cold winter, but if the Farmers’ Almanac is right, you might want to stock up on long johns.
Zitat The Farmers’ Almanac is using words like “piercing cold,” “bitterly cold” and “biting cold” to describe the upcoming winter. And if its predictions are right, the first outdoor Super Bowl in years will be a messy “Storm Bowl.”
The 197-year-old publication that hits newsstands Monday predicts a winter storm will hit the Northeast around the time the Super Bowl is played at MetLife Stadium in the Meadowlands in New Jersey. It also predicts a colder-than-normal winter for two-thirds of the country and heavy snowfall in the Midwest, Great Lakes and New England.
“We’re using a very strong four-letter word to describe this winter, which is C-O-L-D. It’s going to be very cold,” said Sandi Duncan, managing editor.
Based on planetary positions, sunspots and lunar cycles, the almanac’s secret formula is largely unchanged since founder David Young published the first almanac in 1818.
Modern scientists don’t put much stock in sunspots or tidal action, but the almanac says its forecasts used by readers to plan weddings and plant gardens are correct about 80 percent of the time. (Read More)
Huh, that’s weird. They don’t take into effect carbon offsets and CO2 emissions, but they’re right 80% of the time.

Even of the weather is perfect, the Super Bowl will be a mess. Who the hell wants to go to the armpit of America in the winter to party and watch football?

Nah, you need to look on the bright side. Imagine the money to be made.
Especially to whoever has the Krispy Kreme donut concession.
And I can just see it now:
Halftime show: Zero can swoop in on AF1 - he and Gov. Krispie Kreme can continue their lovefest, right in front of everyone on the 50 yard line. Maybe something along the lines of Mylie Cyris on MTV
