Finally, a positive departure
Posted: 01 Nov 2021 05:37 AM
The featured chart presents monthly precipitation departures from average for Cedar Rapids since
2019 along with concurrent El Nino 3.4 index values. This past October's departure was the largest
positive departure for the site since May 2019 and the first positive departure since January! While the
recent rains have slowed down harvest progress, the rain has put a significant dent in the ongoing
drought situation over the state. The forecast for this week looks dry and rather chilly with highs in the
40s and lows in the 20s.
