The Old Farmer's Almanac, the oldest periodical still continuing to be published in North America, predicts that nearly the entire country, especially the New England area, will suffer yet another very cold winter this season, followed up by an even hotter summer in 2015. Further national breakdown below.

According to the Almanac, in the Ohio Valley and Pittsburgh region the winter will be much colder than normal, with the coldest periods in mid-December, from late December through early January, and in mid- and late January.

Reaffirming the chilling forecast, the Almanac editor Janice Stillman said, "Colder is just almost too familiar a term ... Think of it as a refriger-nation," before noting that 'colder than average' is really only about 2-5 degree difference.
