Unlike the southern hemisphere, in the United States they are already preparing for receive the boreal winter, which will begin next December and will last until March. In an early forecast, the site specialized in meteorology Old Farmers Almanac indicated that the central region of the American South will not have extreme conditions during that season of the year. In this sense, he pointed out that in Texas and Oklahoma will not see any major surprises during late 2024 and early 2025but there will be two particularities that will be felt with greater emphasis on this occasion.
