Mild winters do not normally indicate hotter than normal summers.

ALBANY, GA --
Will this mild winter lead to a sweltering summer?
That was the question in today's Facebook story of the day.
The short answer is no.
Chief Meteorologist Mike Morrison says there is no correlation between a mild winter and a summer with above normal temperatures.
However, that will happen this year.
“We may have a hot summer, the climate prediction center is forecasting above normal temperatures as we go through June, July and August of 2012,” says Morrison.
Morrison says we experienced a similar situation last year.
