The Old Farmer’s Almanac is predicting a warmer-than-average and drier spring for the majority of the U.S., which should mean earlier thawing, less prolonged cold snaps, and in certain parts of the country, less rainfall than we usually see in the Spring season.

Western Massachusetts and north central Massachusetts should see these dry conditions, along with upstate New York. As far a precipitation it looks Massachusetts and the rest of the Northeast will experience an above average rain fall in April and below average in May.

In Massachusetts there is always the protentional for an early spring snow shower or even storm, but the good news this year the almanac says there is no significant snowfall expected for the early spring months.
