Climatologists Seek Resident Input To Map Weather Patterns

With the spring storms we’ve been experiencing, it’s more important than ever to offer precise measurements of precipitation from your own backyard. David Paulson is a volunteer for the National Weather Service who turned a casual interest in local weather into a daily mission. David first heard about CoCoRaHS through a Water Action Volunteers newsletter. At first, he thought his neighborhood was already covered, until he noticed a gap in the data. So, David stepped up, bringing his experience from river monitoring straight to his rain gauge. But it’s not just rain! CoCoRaHS stands for the Community Collaborative Rain, Hail and Snow Network. David tells Stephanie Hoff how he collects hail data.

Spring Storms -- An Ideal Time To Get Involved With CoCoRaHS

Last night's thunderstorms provided some impressive rainfall totals and fierce winds. Ag Meteorologist Stu Muck says we can expect more precipitation throughout the week.


Bob Bosold takes us on a trip to Arizona to learn about olives and olive oil. Different olives produce different types and qualities of oil. The oil you choose depends greatly on use and taste. Bob learns more.


Pam catches up with Randy Kath and our friends at the Steffes Group.


This week's rain has the potential to play a role in filling manure pits, and will need to be emptied before we know it. As Wisconsin farms get larger and shift toward liquid manure systems, the number of injuries and deaths related to toxic gas exposure is trending higher.  Stephanie Hoff and Extension Specialist Becky Larson talk manure gas safety musts.


Why have corn and wheat been feeling pressure, and are soybeans next? John Heinberg walks us through the elements to pay attention to.
