Statewide, Iowa — February ended up being much wetter than normal — despite having what state climatologist Justin Glisan calls a “snow drought.”
The month will end up high on the list when it comes to precipitation.
A warmer than average overall temperature could be part of the reason for the below average snow.
February continued what has been a wetter and warm winter season.
This past Wednesday marked the start of the meteorological spring for Iowa.
