The University of Missouri has expanded its weather station system across the state. Climatologist Pat Guinan with MU Extension says two more stations added recently bring the total to 39, “A collaboration with North Central Missouri University in Grundy County in the community of Trenton, we set up a weather station on the Barton farm. And then just in Cole County, a collaboration with Lincoln University. We’ve activated a real time station on the Busby farm in Cole County.”
Guinan says the weather stations update every five minutes and farmers can check on their areas online with real-time maps.
