The EarthView team is happy to be visiting South Middle School in Braintree for our annual visit! 

Image result for fallWhile thinking about something to write about this week, EarthView wrangler Eva stumbled across a Sun Chronicle article that sure caught her attention! The article is titled "Stockpile the bread and milk. Winter's coming and it looks to be cruel". While our Fall season is barely underway as the Autumnal Equinox just occurred last week, it is never too early to prepare for Winter...or is it? 

According to the article, Accuweather has released a long range forecast which warns that the Northeast, especially the area between Hartford, Connecticut and Boston, Massachusetts will see frequent storms, below normal temperatures, and that the snow could last into early to mid Spring.

Can you guess what's happening on March 4th, 2017?


How accurate is this forecast? I guess we will have to wait and find out. However, the farther into the future you go, the less certain a weather forecast is. As long as it does not snow on or around March 4th, Eva will be a happy camper!










We hope that the students of South Middle School enjoy their visit inside of Earthview and we hope to be back next year!
