episode_narrativeThe unseasonably warm and dry fall allowed drought conditions to worsen. The Palmer Drought Index fell into the severe category during the month. Total rainfall for the month of November at Cape Girardeau was 0.77 inches, which is 2.2 inches below normal. Since the official growing season was over, crop damage was no longer a major concern. As a result of temperatures in the 70s, gusty winds, and low humidity, wildfire activity was above normal. All burning was banned on state and federal land, including the Mark Twain National Forest. Major fires exceeding 1,000 acres occurred in the central Missouri portion of the Mark Twain National Forest.
