Description

Joe Ikley and Sarah Lancaster discuss the North Dakota Agricultural Weather Network (NDAWN) and the Kansas Mesonet with directors Daryl Ritchison and Chip Redmond, respectively. NDAWN, with over 250 stations, provides high-resolution weather data, including soil moisture and temperature measurements. Kansas Mesonet, with 94 stations, focuses on real-time data for agricultural and emergency management purposes. Both networks emphasize the importance of accurate weather data for herbicide application, particularly wind speed, inversions, and delta T measurements. The conversation highlights the critical role of Mesonets in agriculture and emergency response.
