Here is what the summer could look like in Binghamton this year, according to the Old Farmer's Almanac. The almanac's predictions, which were updated on April 16, indicate a hot summer for Binghamton. The predictions note last summer was one of the hottest on record for the U.S., with a nationwide average temperature of 73.8 degrees, and this year is "shaping up to be just as intense," although the buildup to these temperatures will be relatively gradual.
