Drought relief on the horizon

Missouri continues to look for drought relief. University of Missouri Extension Interim State Climatologist Tony Lupo says the spring outlook shows a good chance of moisture.

“There’s a good chance we’re heading into a wetter period at least for the eastern side of the state.”

However, Lupo tells Brownfield it could take longer for drought conditions to improve in the western part of the state.

“Kansas is still very dry as well as Nebraska and those areas. Drought areas can expand as summer comes in.”

La Nina is set to end this spring and Lupo says the summers following are typically warmer.
