Warm And Dry in Nebraska to Start Winter
10/19/2012

 (KLZA) Parts of drought-stricken Iowa, Nebraska and much of the Midwest are expected to be warmer and drier than normal in early winter.

The National Weather Service forecast maps issued Thursday show higher-than-normal temperatures are expected over the next three months for the western third of Iowa and all of Nebraska. But lower-than-normal moisture is expected for the eastern third of Nebraska and all of Iowa.

      Mike Halpert, of the weather service's Climate Prediction Center, says the predictions "are the weather service's best guess, based on a variety of computer models. "
