University of Missouri Extension climatologist Pat Guinan says Missouri is the “bullseye” of the drought.
Missourians can share drought conditions directly to the National Drought Monitor to improve reporting on-the-ground. University of Missouri Extension climatologist Pat Guinan says information can be uploaded to the newly-created Missouri Extension Drought Impact Reporter website which includes photos.
Information provided by users is shared with the national Drought Impact Reporter – the nation’s first comprehensive database of drought conditions.
Guinan says 2012’s drought was far more devastating and widespread – from Utah to Ohio – but this year’s drought conditions are different.
Guinan says temperatures are expected to moderate in Missouri this week and there might be some rain.
