If you think forecasting the weather is hard, you should see all the factors that go into predicting what rivers will do. There is reason for concern though as it appears there's a growing chance that the Mississippi River will exceed flood stages this Spring along its banks in Missouri and Illinois.

We're not technically into Spring yet, but a peek ahead to what Farmer's Almanac is predicting for Missouri's upcoming summer is a little bit terrifying.

I fear claiming victory too soon, but the extended forecast for the tri-state area makes me wonder if we're about to experience an early spring this year. There is a distinct warming trend with no snow in sight.
