Spring Arrives in Iowa as 12:14 P.M. Thursday
The weather forecast confirms spring will begin in Iowa at 12:14 p.m. next Thursday with near normal temperatures and above normal precipitation. Meteorologist C. E. Lamoureux notes the forecast covers through March 31 and warns forecasts farther ahead are risky. Farmers hope for dry, sunny weather to start oat sowing, aiming to increase oat acreage due to a weak 1951 corn crop and a longer, spongy ground.
