Iowa weather cycle tests drought risk amid wet spell
Iowa State Climatologist Paul Waite cautions farmers not to fear drought yet as subsoil moisture remains adequate for half a growing season. He outlines a long history of alternating two to three year wet and dry cycles since the 1960s and notes a currently ongoing wet period about 20 percent above normal. Waite links volcanic eruptions to cooler regional temperatures and reduced solar radiation, suggesting a possible shift but stresses current moisture coverage and ongoing study.
