I'm not sure this is even the right place, but many gardeners subscribe
to information found in The Old Farmers Almanac and the like. I live in
SE South Dakota and have a 75+ year burr oak in my yard. This year I
have so many acorns that ther ground is literally covered with them.
Does anyone know if this may be a sign of an impending hard long winter?

Probably more of a sign of a past season that was good for the tree.
