Farmers’ Almanac: Late April Storm Could Spawn a Few Tornadoes

Some April storms might give rise to tornadic activity over the Rockies and Plains, according to the Farmers' Almanac.

"It will be a veritable 'meteorological swizzle stick,' stirring up everything from snow, wind, rain, and severe thunderstorms, possibly even spawning a few tornadoes."

The Farmer's Almanac is also predicting cooler-than-normal temperatures across large parts of the U.S. for the second half of May, and says many will likely refer to it as a "backward spring."
