With winter fast approaching, Wisconsin farmers are preparing for a season of unpredictable weather, following a warmer-than-usual winter last year. Steve Vavrus, Wisconsin's State Climatologist, shares key insights into what the winter outlook holds. "We're not expecting the extreme warmth of last winter," Vavrus explains. "In fact, NOAA's National Weather Service is forecasting an equal chance of a warm, cold, or near-normal winter. This doesn't give us much to work with." However, Vavrus notes that the Great Lakes region, including Wisconsin, could see a wetter-than-normal winter. "The eastern half of Wisconsin, in particular, is likely to experience above-average precipitation," he says. This could mean more snow, rain, or a combination of both, depending on how temperatures unfold. The timing of this precipitation could be crucial for farmers. "If the soils freeze early, any rain or snow will run off. But if the freeze is delayed, moisture can infiltrate the soil, which is beneficial after this year's drought," Vavrus adds. Currently, soils are warmer than usual, allowing rainfall and early snow to absorb more effectively.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

An update on Minnesota's long-lasting drought came Thursday morning and the news is looking good! For the first time since 2020, the vast majority of Minnesota is no longer in a drought at all. That news came just before Gov. Tim Walz is to announce the air quality forecast for this summer at 2 p.m.The hope is that the lack of drought means less wildfire — and smoky air — for the next few months. The end of the drought is also a huge relief to farmers statewide. For perspective on what this report means, MPR News host Cathy Wurzer talked with state climatologist Luigi Romolo and Lindsay Pease, a professor of nutrient and water management at the University of Minnesota.

Check out all the NAEP has to offer at NAEP.org.Guest Bio:Since he was very young, Larry always knew that he wanted to work in weather, other than that time in fourth grade where he toyed with the idea of becoming the governor of Arizona. His fascination with weather came about when he born in South Dakota, a state which basically gets every type of weather except for tropical storms; the weather also changed a lot and quickly, which annoys many but added to the mystery. After high school, Larry went to community college in California and transferred to the atmospheric science program at the Univ. of California at Davis. There he hit a bit of indecision whether he wanted to forecast or do research. He heard there were those who studied how weather and ocean interacts, and immediately had this romantic notion of setting up instruments on some warm tropical beach drinking Mai Tai's. As an undergraduate, Larry did a research program at the University of Hawaii which hooked him on the topic. For many reasons, he chose to go to graduate school at Oregon State Univ. His thesis work unfortunately did not have anything to do with long stretches of time on warm tropical beaches. The thesis project mainly dealt with using new sets of satellites to characterize how the ocean affects the weather and vice versa. Larry worked with the Navy for some time after graduate school at the Naval Research Laboratory in Monterey, CA. He was fortunate there to be working with a group on essentially pure research projects with some interactions on their operational weather forecasting systems and their use of satellite observations. He wanted to teach and advise students, so decided to return to Oregon State Univ as a faculty member. Since then, Larry has expanded his research and outreach focus, which includes activities as State Climatologist of Oregon and the Director of Oregon Climate Service. Music CreditsIntro: Givin Me Eyes by Grace MesaOutro: Never Ending Soul Groove by Mattijs MullerSupport the show
