How accurate are the Farmer's Almanac's weather predictions?

The accuracy of the Farmer's Almanac's weather predictions has been a topic of debate over the years. According to an Illinois University study, the Almanac is roughly 52 percent accurate, which is not perfect but still worth paying attention to.

It's important to remember that long-term weather forecasting is a challenging task due to the complex factors that influence weather patterns and that the Almanac uses a complex formula that takes into account a wide range of factors.
