Winter relaxes grip as forecasts warn of March cold
Wisconsin weather cooled last week with a first above freezing reading since Jan 7 in Eau Claire, while National Weather Service forecasters in Twin Cities warn cold could persist into March. Chief meteorologist John Graff cautioned spring planting may be delayed and germination could suffer if surface temperatures stay low. He stressed he is speaking climatologically, not forecasting, and noted potential dry spells could harm yields if heat and dryness persist. The piece also mentions a 32 degree reading at Eau Claire airport ending a 47 day freezing stretch.
