September 2, 2024 — The 2025 Farmers Almanac predicts a mix of weather patterns for the western United States this winter.

The Desert Southwest, including Arizona and New Mexico, should brace for colder-than-normal temperatures, while California is projected to have a warmer winter.

Snowfall will be a prominent feature in the Intermountain region encompassing Utah and Colorado, with above-average accumulation expected. California will also see its share of moisture, with a wetter-than-normal winter predicted statewide and above-normal snowfall in the mountains. The Desert Southwest can anticipate more rain than usual this winter, with above-normal snowfall in mountainous regions, particularly in mid-December and early February.

The timing of the snowiest periods will vary across regions, with some areas experiencing their heaviest snowfall as early as mid-November.
