October Rain

Posted: 15 Oct 2014 05:45 AM

The recently departed storm system dumped a considerable amount of rainfall over much of the state. The featured map presents NOAA MRMS estimates for the 48 hour period prior to 7 AM last evening. Over four inches of rain was reported in the Pella - Oskaloosa area! All of this rain has further delayed an already late fall harvest of soybeans and corn. The good news is that the near term forecast does look mostly dry.
