Europe Bracing For Stormy Week As Hurricane Energy Arrives

Kansas City, October 4 (World Weather Inc.) – Remnant energy from Hurricanes Isaac and Kirk will be impacting northwestern Europe next week resulting in periods of strong wind, flooding rain and very rough seas. Damage to personal property and infrastructure is expected. That will include the potential for many fallen trees and power outages with some potential for road and port closures.

Dry Conditions to Continue in U.S. Pacific Northwest

Kansas City, October 4 (World Weather Inc.) – Recent dry weather in the U.S. Pacific Northwest crop region has allowed for ideal fieldwork conditions; however, drought is gradually intensifying across the crop region and reservoir levels are being depleted in the Yakima and Umatilla Basins. In the next 7-days, minimal rainfall between trace amounts and 0.20 inch are expected in Washington and northern Oregon with dry conditions persisting elsewhere. More precipitation will be needed in the coming weeks to reduce drought conditions, improve soil moisture, and to support emergence and development of winter wheat.

India’s Monsoon Ends Well; Good Production Year

Kansas City, October 4 (World Weather Inc.) – Technically, India’s monsoon season runs from June through September, but the monsoon flow usually lasts into October and brings significant rain to southern parts of the nation prior to the pattern withdrawing. This year’s monsoon brought wild weather to the nation once again with many human deaths, landslides and extremely heavy rain at times that induced flooding that impacted some crop areas. However, looking back at the year and the overall condition of crops it would appear that most have performed well. Harvesting is beginning and seasonal rains are shifting southward to support that process. Southern India will be wettest for a while eventually supporting the planting of winter crops.
