February 2026 was nominally the second-warmest February on record, behind February 2024, with a monthly global average of about 2.78 degrees warmer than the 1850-1900 average. But it only marginally exceeded the conditions in February 2025 and 2016, so all three of those years could be consi…
Climate change is supercharging the water cycle, bringing heavier rainfall extremes and related flood risks across the United States. Some 129 U.S. cities – 90 percent of 144 analyzed –have experienced an increase in hourly rainfall intensity since 1970. Across those 129 locations, hourly ra…
May in far-northern Wisconsin was damp and cool. Many mornings the air over land along Lake Superior almost invited Jack Frost for a late visit. It seemed like the liquid in outdoor thermometers was influenced more by gravity than by heat. Lake Superior surface-water temperatures in some are…
Whether working in the field or preparing the farm for severe storms, a weather forecast is essential. Folks might instinctively grab their smartphones to check an app for an instant weather update. But many times the sky has painted a different picture than what’s on that screen.
As climate change increases the frequency of drought, excessive rainfall and other extreme-weather events, farmers face growing uncertainty about crop production. Understanding how farmers perceive and respond to that uncertainty can help improve agricultural policy and climate-adaptation st…
Wisconsin continues to experience significant climate-change impacts, including warming temperatures, increased precipitation and more-frequent extreme-weather events. The Extreme Weather Index, developed by the University of Wisconsin-Wisconsin State Climatology Office, shows that the 2010s…
Temperatures remained cooler-than-normal in Wisconsin the week of May 14, with many locations reporting average temperatures of 4 to 8 degrees colder than normal. Most of Wisconsin received no precipitation. Totals were more in the northwest, but those totals were less than normal for this t…
Temperatures were 2-5 degrees colder than normal across most of Wisconsin this past week. That contrasts with the warmer-than-normal temperatures that we have experienced during the past month.

It has been a very busy couple of weeks here in southern Wisconsin. All the cropland needed to be worked and each field has its own needs. Disc-ing, digging and then culti-mulching for some; others just need the digger and the smoothing of the culti-mulcher.
As old-fashioned wall calendars flipped pages to May and digital calendars rearranged electrons to follow suit, most folks along Wisconsin’s Lake Superior shore were ready to relieve winter fug by throwing open windows to let in fresh air. And while there were some delightful sunny days, tem…
May 4 saw significant dust squalls across the Midwest. Indiana was hit with dust blowing from Illinois fields. Fences and utility lines came down in north-central and central Illinois. Eastern Iowa saw pseudo-tornadoes made of topsoil swirling across roads. Several highways were closed. Dust…
