Slightly warmer and slightly drier-than-average; that’s the spring and summer outlook from North Dakota Agricultural Weather Network Director Daryl Ritchison. “I think it’ll be a situation where we start out pretty good because of last fall’s rain, but then things just gradually dry up towards the end of summer.” The weather pattern will hinge on the pattern of the jet stream. “As long as we stay with a northwest flow, we tend to be dry.”
