Sometimes, those signs have been pretty persuasive. In 2023, the mostly rust-colored woolly worms we found suggested a mild winter. The winter of 2023-24 largely obliged. The following fall, an abundance of unusually large hedge apples warned of rougher weather ahead. Cold and ice followed. You may like: Why do apples change color as they ripen on trees? That's
