Have you seen the Wooly Worms/Bears?
#1
There is an old tale about Wooly Worms/Bears and how they may predict how mild or severe the coming winter will be by the size of the brown stripe is. The thicker the stripe the milder the winter will be.

Of course, this is just legend and there is no way to predict the weather but in my area, the Wooly Worms/Bears have no brown stripe on them at all, they are all black. If the legend is true, we will be having a really bad winter, cold and lots of snow.

Most of the ones I've seen are all brown, with an occasional black tip on each end. Science - go figure....

Just going to say the same.  I think I heard brown ones means a worse winter?

According to the following link, the coloring has more to do with the previous winter: http://fox41blogs.typepad.com/wdrb_weather/2014/09/black-woolly-worms-showing-up-around-the-area-what-does-that-mean-for-the-upcoming-winter.html
