If that is the case, why are we seeing more concerns over the low rivers than in those prior years?  In fact, we heard just two weeks ago on the Opening Market Podcast with Jim McCormick of AgMarket.Net, that the Mississippi River was lower at Memphis than it had been in the two bad droughts of 1988 & 2012.
