Most cotton farmers believed they would have a bumper crop earlier in the season but, late season rains began to fall and seemed as though they were not going to stop.
ARKANSAS: Temperatures were near normal and rainfall was above normal in December.
With very little harvesting going on in December, the weather had little effect on field crops.
The ice storm across the northern counties was more difficult on livestock, especially dairy cattle.
Most counties are reporting full ponds, running springs due to the rainfall keeping hopes high for adequate irrigation in the spring.
Temperatures ranged from low single digits to mid-50's as El Nino kept temperatures above normals.
Precipitation for December was below normal statewide.

Having two sock layers means that your socks will slide against each other so that any friction from your boots is between the sock layers rather than directly against your skin (friction against the skin leads to blisters).
1 external or internal frame backpack with shoulder straps and padded hipbelt.
External frame packs should have 3,300-4,300 cubic inches of volume and internal frame packs 4,000-5,000 cubic inches.
Pack size is an important factor when selecting a pack.
With 60 pounds in the pack, the hipbelt slipped off my butt and I ended up carrying much of the weight on my shoulders.

NSF International and the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) hosted the second meeting of the Stakeholder Advisory Group (SAG) for the Wet Weather Flow Technologies (WWF) Pilot in Atlanta.
Mr. Smith explained that flexibility would be maintained for each technology category, the Protocol Development phase starts with the formation of a Technology Panel and culminates in the completion of a generic test protocol subject to review and comment by the Stakeholder Advisory Group and a public comment period.
The important steps in the Testing Phase were highlighted from the acceptance of vendor applications, to the approval of technology-specific test plans, to the actual testing and issuance of a verification report.
Panel members discussed separating the protocols for high rate flocculation / clarification from vortex separators.
A possible third protocol or amended protocol may be required for vortex separators operating with coagulant addition.

Traffic congestion resulting from rain, snow, wind, and reduced visibility costs travelers hours of delay and inconvenience.
Estimates of the consequence of a one-day highway shutdown due to snow in a major metropolitan area range from $15 to $76 million in lost time, productivity, and wages.
New technologies can improve information systems, maintenance tools, and road weather management practices.
This will help transportation officials reduce weather-related costs, provide more accurate and up-to-date information to the public, and decrease the number of weather-related traffic injuries and fatalities.
Transportation agencies spend about $2 billion annually for snow and ice control, and $5 billion for infrastructure repair attributable to weather.

Regulations 1992 form part of a series of health and safety regulations implementing EC Directives.
The effect of the PPE at Work Regulations is to ensure that certain basic duties governing the provision and use of PPE apply to all situations where PPE is required.
PPE is defined in the Regulations as 'all equipment (including clothing affording protection against the weather) which is intended to be worn or held by a person at work and which protects him against one or more risks to his health or safety', eg safety helmets, gloves, eye protection, high-visibility clothing, safety footwear and safety harnesses.

To forecast tomorrow's weather it is necessary to make observations of pressure, temperature, humidity and wind (direction and speed) together with rainfall, snowfall, general weather and other observations.
Air temperature is usually measured with a liquid-in-glass thermometer, where the liquid expands and moves up the tube when heated and contracts when cooled.
Wind speeds are divided into categories called the Beaufort Wind Scale, which contains a break-up of the speeds from 0-12 and a description for the weather at that time.
For example: Beaufort scale number 6 translates to wind speeds of 39-49 km/hr, which is described as a strong breeze.
