"The Old Farmer's Almanac 2025-2026 Winter Forecast describes the national outlook as "mostly mild-with pockets of wild." Editor Carol Connare explains that "most areas will experience near-normal to slightly milder temperatures," though brief cold snaps could still pop up along the East Coast. For Delaware homeowners, that means a milder and drier winter overall-with fewer snow days, gentler cold, and more manageable weather from the beaches to the Brandywine Valley."
"Precipitation is predicted to run below normal, signaling fewer soaking storms than usual. Snowfall will also be below normal, though the Almanac forecasts a few light snow events in late December, early January, and late February. That mix of milder air and lighter precipitation means an easier season for most Delaware residents. Coastal areas may see more chilly rain than snow, while northern parts of the state could still catch a flurry or two."
The Old Farmer's Almanac forecast calls for a mostly mild national winter with pockets of wild weather and near-normal to slightly milder temperatures for many areas. Delaware sits in the Atlantic Corridor and can expect above-normal temperatures, with the coldest stretches likely in mid- to late December, early and late January, and late February. Precipitation is expected below normal, producing fewer soaking storms and below-normal snowfall with a few light snow events. Coastal areas may see more rain than snow while northern parts could get a flurry or two. November home maintenance is recommended even for a mild winter.
