WDRB, (a station local to Kentuckiana), had a video blurb on X (formerly Twitter) about wooly worms and winter weather. They were letting their viewers know that brown wooly worms (even with a bit of black on each end) signal a mild winter. Everything else is bad — unless you like harsh winter weather.
Those mostly black suckers? They’re a warning that we’re in for some severe days throughout the season. The consensus from photos that were sent to the station by viewers say… we’re in for a severe”ish” winter ahead. Who cares that scientists and weather experts say a woolly worm’s coloration is actually determined by its species, age, and diet, not the weather?
We know winter is coming…
Next week we should be around 15° colder during the daytime than what we have now — and persimmons are throwing spoons like it’s their job!
Whatever we get, we get. No amount of brown wooly worms or persimmon seed forks is going to change it. I’m ready for snow! How about you?
Now you know: John Lennon’s killer, Mark David Chapman, has been married to the same woman since before he murdered Lennon. He’s been allowed regular conjugal visits since 2014.
