Old Farmer's Almanac
Yearly weather predictor
The Old Farmer's Almanac is an American periodical published annually since 1792, containing weather forecasts, planting charts, astronomical data, and folksy advice.
It's known for its yellow cover and hole punched in the corner (traditionally for hanging in outhouses).
Farmers and gardeners consult it for planting dates; others read it for trivia and homespun wisdom: According to the Old Farmer's Almanac, this winter will be harsh.
