Missouri could see effects of the blizzard that hit North and South
Dakota late last week. If weather in the Dakotas warms it will melt the snow
and send it down the Missouri River, according to Chris Chinn, director of the
Missouri Department of Agriculture. Missouri farmers continue to deal with high
water as they recover from flooding that’s already happened this year, said
Chinn.
“We’re all praying that we have a light winter so there isn’t going to be a lot
of additional snow,” Chinn told Brownfield Ag News, “so that our farmers here
in Missouri have that needed break to get their levees built, to get back in
their homes, to do that clean-up process.”
If more floods are coming, Chinn says areas that have already seen the greatest
flood impact will need the most attention.
