What is our spring going to be? Farmer’s almanac has a very broad description of our spring. See what you think.
What weather does Spring 2022 have in store for us? Will it get warmer or cool off? Is rain on the way? Read on for seasonal weather predictions from The Old Farmer’s Almanac meteorologist Michael Steinberg.
The Almanac’s Spring Weather Forecast
Spring officially begins, of course, with the spring equinox, which arrives on Sunday, March 20, at 11:33 A.M. Eastern Time. At this time, the Sun stands directly over Earth’s equator, and we can wake up knowing that we are inching ever closer to the longest day of the year, the summer solstice.
But let’s not get too ahead of ourselves dreaming of summer weather just yet. First, let’s talk about what to expect for spring.
What Weather Will Spring Bring Across the United States?
This spring, we’re expecting to see warmer-than-normal temperatures across much of the United States, except for in Florida and the Desert Southwest, where we’re predicting that temperatures will be slightly below normal for spring.
Hopefully, by the time Easter arrives on April 17, we’ll have left wintery weather far behind us!
Spring Showers to Bring Plenty of Flowers
Rainfall will be above normal in parts of the South, including Georgia, southern Florida, and southern Texas, as well as parts of the Midwest (Minnesota and the eastern halves of North and South Dakota).
Also expect more rain than normal in a large swathe of the western U.S. stretching from the Intermountain region into the Pacific Northwest, and from Arizona westward into southern California.
Hawaii is also expected to experience above-normal rainfall this spring.
Rain is predicted to be near normal elsewhere in the country.
Springtime in Canada
In Canada, we expect spring temperatures to be above normal across most of the country, but near normal in Atlantic Canada.
Precipitation will be below normal from Atlantic Canada westward through Quebec and above normal elsewhere.
