Over the long-term, though, a good snow year is looking possible, according to the FA. "Precipitation and snowfall will be above normal, with the snowiest periods in mid- to late December, early and late January, early February, and early and late March. April and May will be cooler than normal, with near-normal precipitation."
At the end of the day, as snow lovers, we here in Aspen want to believe the Farmer's Almanac, and we want to think the early-season snow will hold true through the rest of the season to give us a winter to remember. But as Gratz and other meteorologists warn, don't get too excited by October snow. It's best to stick to tried-and-true methods of making sure we're blessed with a good season like snow dances, burning old skis, and wearing your pajamas inside out from now until April.
