southern MN | Southern Minnesota, 'wet' is not a term we use this time of year.
The snowbanks are a lot higher than they normally are this time of year, so we are expecting more flooding than normal this spring.
We never really know until March tho, if we get an early Feb thaw things go fine; if we get more than average snow in March then we are in trouble.
Little of that stuff really goes into the ground tho. But the ground was pretty wet in fall, and since it's been froze up and will be until end of March, it will be wet ground.
April rains is really the big effect on our ground up here. We typically get a lot, which adds to the remaining snow melt to saturate the ground.
But this time of year, we just talk about how high the snowbanks are, not the ground.
