A little rain here and there and warmer than normal temperatures has been the theme since spring 2012. I have only recorded 17.12 inches since mid-May 2012 (when my station came up). That total keeps un in SEVERE DROUGHT. We did have some rain in Feb-Mar but not the usual late winter early spring amounts. Witness, the Buffalo River never really had a float season in 2012.
Moderate (not frigid) temperatures and above to much above normal rain is forecasted this mid-winter.
According to the NWS, some relief (rain, maybe snow, and moderate temperatures) may be in store in Dec–Feb 2012-2013 — I sure hope so:
An impressive share! I’ve just forwarded this onto a coworker who had been doing a little homework on this. And he actually bought me dinner simply because I discovered it for him… lol. So allow me to reword this…. Thanks for the meal!! But yeah, thanx for spending the time to talk about this matter here on your site
