Half Inch over Seven Days
Posted: 20 May 2019 05:33 AM
The wet and chilly weather mostly dominated this past weekend again adding to the
general misery that has been May in Iowa this year. The featured chart presents a daily
estimate of the portion of Iowa that had received at least a half inch of precipitation over
the trailing seven days. The May depiction is rather solid green indicating that the drier
areas have been limited so far this season. The comparison with the end of April is
noticeable, but this plot does not take into account cold soil temperatures when attempting
to apply toward agricultural crop planting suitability.
