January 2024 ran back what was a rarity last January.

It was a year ago we informed you that January offered zero mostly sunny days in 2023. Ed Shimon at the National Weather Service in Lincoln indicates it happened again in 2024.

January was, however, very wet. Shimon points out, any lingering drought is eased in most parts of the state.

The outlooks for the spring are looking very favorable for the upcoming planting season. We'll have more with Shimon on that next week on Regional Radio.
