Above, but behind
Posted: 16 Jun 2011 07:00 AM
On a statewide average basis, precipitation since 1 April is an inch or
so above average and comfortably behind accumulated totals from 2008
and 2010. Our recent stretch of wet weather has turned the slope of
this year's line to resemble that of our recent big flood years. This
plot does not tell the story of the record flooding along the Missouri
River due to upstream rainfall and snow melt. The forecast has more
rain chances with a return to summer like humidity and temperatures.
