March brought a return to warmer weather with an active spring-like pattern. There were a couple rounds of heavier rain, somewhere within the Mississippi basin, regionally that contributed to additional river flooding. Monthly precipitation was above normal at most locations, as much as 150 to 200 percent above normal in the lower Missouri and mid Mississippi Valleys.
