EDENotes, the blog of the Extension Disaster Education Network, posted their spring outlook this week at https://blogs.extension.org/edenotes/2015/03/25/weather-wednesday-spring-outlook/.   As I noted earlier, the forecast calls for an increased chance of above normal precipitation in April through June in the Southeast.

ProFarmer also published an article describing the expansion of drought in the Northern and Central Great Plains and the impacts that could cause to crops in that region.  They also noted that conditions in Texas are expected to improve slightly.
