Trees and animals are prompt, what would be the winter
I wrote an article in the spring "Trees prompt ..." About when to plant, when to go fishing. Article proved popular and, it seems to me that now is the winter you will also be interested in my collection not just take, namely observation, the results of which are confirmed by researchers.
I'd like to know what would be the winter. Last year, for example, down jacket I never wore. Winter warm, summer - on the contrary began to cool. Every year waiting for a miracle - the return to normal weather. Now in the autumn
Do you want to - believe it or - no, but some animals have learned to predict the weather so well that even researchers surprised observers. For example, black and brown caterpillar butterflies bears its external coloration can anticipate, predict what would be the winter with an accuracy of 80%. This is confirmed by years of research.
There are black and brown, and there is absolutely black caterpillars. Here, black and brown is brown watch section. If it is wide - winter will be mild, if the strip is narrow - winter will be harsh, mean - mean normal winter will be. Well, here it is necessary to understand the winter in the area where you see.
At the time, the magazine "Almanac" loved publish predicting the weather in a particular season, not only with the help of the Hydrometeorological Center of data, but also for some national signs. Here they even confirmed that can predict winter Oak acorn shell thickness. Accordingly, it is thicker than - the more severe. There are also observations cone yield. If, however, there was little pine harvest, the winter is likely to be warm.
If you are in the region noticed an abnormally large pine cones, then be prepared for the harsh winter. The fact that the pine increases the amount of seeds just before the adverse conditions for the conservation of seed germination - the cold of winter.
You go for a walk in the woods? Pay attention to the brightness of the color of autumn trees. If you think that too in very bright colors dressed trees, it may also be a sign of a cold winter with lots of snow.
Vacationers can watch for signs of a severe winter, the thickness of onion peel. If thick and solid, respectively, the bow trying to shelter from the cold.
Look for nests of wasps and bees, how high they are suites, on trees or other structures. This is a sign that there will be a lot of snow in winter.
Just on the bird migration can be understood to be early or late winter. Geese, ducks early departures - come early frosts.
