A little fun with the Farmer's Almanac...

I got the 2002 Almanac from my boss last fall. Since it's hurricane season, I figured we'd have a little fun with the South Central and South East where tropical threats are mentioned just to see how they do. The last 2 or 3 years only had one threat for the GC, but this year they mention several. As an afterthought, they're calling for a cold Halloween and basically a chilly fall including frost 12/1 through 12/3 down to the Gulf.
