I am Nostradamus
- I should have posted this prediction the first of January when I made it, but here it is anyway: Utah's winter will start mid-January 2012 and it will be winter until June.
- I should have posted this prediction the day after the Iowa caucus because that's when I made it, but here it is anyway: Mitt Romney will be the Republican nominee because he is the guy who will be able to beat Obama.
- Follow-up for these will be in June and August!

nice lol I love making predictions lol
You know, everyone keeps saying Winter In June. I dunno, I can certainly see it going through May, it almost always does anyway. At least here. I just hope we (the mountains) will get enough that we can water our lawns this summer; I know SLC has lots of aquifers and such, but we just have whatever we get during the winter.
OK, maybe not full-on Winter in June. But here in Salt Lake we are about six to eight weeks behind the "normal" annual weather pattern. Last winter I was saying six weeks behind. This time I think it is closer to eight. We had a cold snap early on, but then it reverted to early fall weather instead of late fall. And at Christmastime it was about what we usually see in October. The ski resorts expect snow so they can open by Thanksgiving, which would be three weeks after that, and voila! Here we are, three weeks later, with a new winter weather pattern, snow, and single-digit temperatures. Hello November!
Thus, my prediction is that we are six to eight weeks late with spring, putting the traditional blustery March in May, and the expected "springy" April flowers at the first of June. Last year they were still skiing into June, weren't they? I see that happening again.
Alyson, I hope you guys get lots of good snow from here on out so that you have your water. As for Salt Lake, we may have aquifers, but most of those many-many-more people here also have huge green lawnspace all over their property. They suck up all the water and want more more more! I don't think the mountains will be able to keep up much longer, even with normal snowfall and aquifers. :(
