Oregonians may experience hot weather or warm and wet weather in the spring, depending on where they live.

The old farmer’s almanac – which has been around since 1792 – just released its predictions for spring throughout the United States.

“The American Spring Outlook predicts warmer than normal temperatures for most of the country,” said the old farmer’s almanac site, adding that April is likely to be warmer than the average in the Intermountain West regions, with periods of cold and frost in May in May May.

Oregon’s forecast seems to have the western half of the state looks warm and dry, and the eastern half looks warm and wet.

Here’s what to know.

When does the spring of 2025 start?

The first spring day is ThursdayMarch 20.

What does the old farmer’s almanac say in the spring of Oregon?

While the Farmer’s Almanac predicts that much of the United States will experience more rainfall than usual, the northwest Pacific will mostly be dry. In April, temperatures rise three degrees higher than average and then fall below average in May.

The eastern half of the Oregon is located in the Intermountain region of the United States, which the farmer’s almanac predicts that rainfall will be “over normal general” in the region, and temperatures will rise four degrees higher than average in April, will then fall three degrees below average in May.

How does the old farmer’s almanac make his predictions?

The Old Farmer’s Almanac uses three main disciplines in its predictions: solar science, climatology and meteorology.

“Like all prognosis, we have not yet gained sufficient insight into the mysteries of the universe to predict the weather with total accuracy, although our results are often very close to our traditional claim of 80%,” says Almanac.

Is the old farmer’s almanac exactly?

Almanac claims to have a high accuracy speed. Before Winter 2023-2024Oregon’s predictions seemed to be somewhat correct and wrong.

Almanacen predicted The northwest Pacific would experience more rainfall and snowfall than usual in the north and less than usual in the south, where the snow -covering days were in late December, early January and early February.

According to KGW -Meteorologist Rod Hill, Portland experienced its second warmest December since 1940. However, in January, however Willamette Valley experienced an unusual weather event With extremely low temperatures, snowfall and freezing rain, leaving many without power.

Almanac calculated internally its accuracy For last winter with regard to precipitation values ​​and temperature values. At rainfall it found that its accuracy was over 80%, but in the temperature it was much lower.

“Overall, our accuracy was to predict the direction of temperature departure for a representative city in each region 44.4%,” it says. “This does last winter’s total accuracy rate 64%, at our traditional average rate of 80%, a reflection of how abnormal recent weather patterns have been.”
