With The Farmer’s Almanac already calling for a cooler-than-normal fall in NYC , it’s also warning that some parts of the country could see wintery weather as soon as September —yes, that’s next month.

NYC winter weather 2025-2026 outlook

According to the forecast, NYC will be near the season’s coldest temperatures (found from the Northern Plains to New England), but not directly in the cold zone.

If you’re hoping for a white winter you might want to head north or west. New Yorkers and other residents along the Atlantic Coast can gear up for significant rain, mixing with snow , but not as much snowfall as New England and the Mid-Atlantic region.

This is simply an extended forecast with early insights. A complete forecast will be released in the 2026 edition.
