The Farmers' Almanac's "time-tested weather formula" has revealed one vision of what winter will look like across Canada, from blustery beginnings to mid-season blizzards. It's also worth remembering that the Farmers' Almanac is "the oldest source of consecutively published weather forecasts, even longer than the National Weather Service."
