This <br /> precipitation mostly comes from widespread storms that can sometimes be extremely heavy. <br /> Localized rains can fall in excess of 4 inches (Nolan J. Doesken, 2003). It is common for the years <br /> to be drier than average and be on the verge of drought, receiving half or less of the long term <br /> rainfall average (Nolan J. Doesken, 2003). <br /> The average daily maximum high temperature for the plains region in the summer is often 95°F <br /> or above, and the average low for that time of year is around 58°F. During the winter months <br /> the average high is 43°F with the average low being 17°F. The range of freeze free period for <br /> the MLRA 67B North is 120 and 160 days (Service N. R., 2012). <br />
