Weak boundary bringing all this rain
Many Missouri farmers are dealing with flooding because of all the rain that’s come their way and more is coming. State climatologist Pat Guinan tells Brownfield Ag News, “There’s a corridor extending from generally around St. Joseph down through Marshall in Saline County over into Columbia in Boone County and just south and east of there, they’ve had over 10 to 15 inches of rain!”
He calls it a major pattern change from the intense heat and dryness of 10 days ago.
“Pretty much a cold front or a weak boundary sort of extending from Wisconsin down into Iowa into Missouri and Kansas and down into Texas. It’s that sort of boundary of instability that’s bringing these occasional day to day changes of thunderstorms.”
The one dry spot in Missouri is the southeastern corner but he says there is some rain in the forecast for that area toward the end of this week.
