NOAA Predicts Bitter Winter in East, Oil Prices on Rise [Correction]

NOAA predicts bitter cold in New England, and cold everywhere else in the Eastern US, extending into Texas, due to the effects of a strong La Nina. The weakening dollar, meanwhile, means that oil prices are going up for the US at large. The drilling moratorium will exacerbate the situation. Cash-strapped Americans will find the winter difficult going.

If this scenario materializes, the Obama Administration will obviously be hardest hit, especially considering the miserable failure of the scandal-, incompetence- and fraud-ridden Federal weatherization program.

CORRECTION: Thanks to T-Bone. It is actually The Farmer's Almanac that's predicting a cold Eastern winter. I'm a Bastardi fan, so I'm linking to the Accu-Weather prediction, which is warmer than usual in the South, colder than usual in the Northwest, and about average everywhere else.
