While we here in the Southeast have been very dry after a fairly wet winter, agricultural producers in the central US are being inundated by wave after wave of wet weather, and more (up to 9 inches in some places) is expected in the next week, which may prevent farmers there from even getting a crop in the ground. I’m not sure which is worse, floods or droughts, if you have non-irrigated farmland. Deke Arndt puts the spring storms and flooding in perspective in the latest blog entry from Climate.gov. You can read it here.
