February was warm and dry - that is until record rains fell in parts of central Illinois this past week.

On the WHOW Morning Show Friday, Ed Shimon at the National Weather Service in Lincoln told Regional Radio the rain in part of Illinois Wednesday brought the month's precipitation totals in line with the average for this time of the year.

February was very mild and did not see a lot of snow. Monday on Regional Radio, Shimon lays out what March is looking like and the outlook for wintry weather to make up for what we did not get in February.
