Bottom line. The current La Nina appears, their bias, to be strong enough to persist upwards of a year. However, they are candid in admitting there are few examples of successfully predicting long term weather.
If the La Nina instead breaks down, good rainfall will arrive in the corn belt during the spring. If it persists, the dry pattern will focus upon Ia, Mo, Mn, Wisc & Ill. and will affect the eastern parts of Neb., Ks, Neb, Dakotas & northern Ok. & ark.
It is more or less an alert in view this La Nina has been of considerable effect already.
They do emphasize, if the La Nina does remain in place throughout 2008, the dryness will not be routine in form, it will be serious. | |
