The Updraft Blog is written by Minnesota Public Radio's meteorologist, Paul Huttner.
He has just made the startling prediction that the Red River and Minnesota River drainages can expect flooding events never seen in recorded history. His conclusions are based on findings that high pressure is being created by steady Arctic warming adding moisture and diverting the Siberian Express then precipitating into the basin created by Lake Agassiz producing elevated snow water equivalents.
The James and Big Sioux, higher now than ever seen in my lifetime, are also expected to see record events this Spring
Anybody invent that snow baler yet?
