Since starting in 1792, the Farmer's Almanac longevity must give its credit to the fruitful and interesting information they contain from page to page: anything from astrology alignments, to a schedule for what days are best for you to do your outdoor chores, to (our favorite) facts about our favorite feline pets.

One thing they stand out for, as most of you already know, is the weather predictions. We've covered briefly here before the weather predictions for the rest of 2024 and the beginning of 2025. But let's get specific: what is the weather like for October of 2024?

Take a look below for a breakdown of what the Farmer's Almanac predicts for the month of October, 2024, here in Montana.

And now the frost is seen in morn,

overspreading fields with white;

the farmer gathers in his corn,

with pleasure and delight.

- Farmer's Almanac 2024, p. 158

There you have it. It seems like the Farmer's Almanac is predicting a wet and chilly start to the fall months, which is a nice alternative when you consider the dry and hot season of last year—which led to our devastating fire season this year. So, if everything goes according to plan, it may be time to bust out the jacket and the umbrella (do people still own those?) from the closet.

Remember: these are predictions, and not accurate readings for what the weather may actually entail. So don't be surprised if it's 100 degrees all through October and the Farmer's Almanac is—gasp—wrong!
