SEASONAL PATTERNS<br />
Summer and early fall are the driest times of the<br />
year in Southwest <strong>Missouri</strong>. Unusually dry springs<br />
and winters with little or no snowfall contribute to<br />
drought conditions.<br />
AREAS LIKELY TO BE AFFECTED MOST<br />
Southwest <strong>Missouri</strong> is less susceptible to problems of prolonged periods without rain due to abundant groundwater<br />
sources. Even with decreased stream flow or lowered reservoir levels, groundwater is still a viable resource in<br />
southern <strong>Missouri</strong>. However, area groundwater has neared all-time lows recently.<br />
PROBABLE DURATION<br />
Drought conditions tend to be cyclic in nature and are affected by many variables. Scientists typically cannot accurately<br />
forecast drought more than a month or two at a time. The last major drought began in July 1999 and continued<br />
into June of 2000.<br />

SEASONAL PATTERNS<br />
No set seasonal pattern exists, though historically,<br />
seismic activity in <strong>Missouri</strong> ranges from December<br />
to July.<br />
AREAS LIKELY TO BE AFFECTED MOST<br />
In <strong>Missouri</strong>, the majority of seismic activity is centered in and around the New Madrid seismic zone. The Nemaha<br />
Uplift runs from about mid-Oklahoma just into Iowa parallel with the <strong>Missouri</strong>/Kansas border. <strong>Greene</strong> <strong>County</strong><br />
contains many small faults; however, no appreciable damage has been recorded from these formations.<br />
PROBABLE DURATION<br />
Any seismic activity in Southwest <strong>Missouri</strong>, specifically <strong>Greene</strong> <strong>County</strong>, is considered minor at worst<br />
and negligible at best. The activity is believed to be of short duration.<br />
WARNING TIME (Potential Speed of Onset)<br />
Minimal (or no) warning.<br />
3 to 6 hours warning.<br />
6 to 12 hours warning.<br />
More than 12 hours warning.<br />
EXISTING WARNING SYSTEM(S)<br />
Seismic sensors are positioned mainly in the New<br />
Madrid Seismic Zone; however, these sensors are<br />
capable of detecting movement in the <strong>Greene</strong><br />
<strong>County</strong> area. Otherwise, no additional warning<br />
systems exist for this hazard.<br />

SEASONAL PATTERNS<br />
<strong>Greene</strong> <strong>County</strong> is typically not prone to riverine<br />

any significant form during the spring and fall of<br />
the year. Flash flood events rarely occur during<br />
Summer or Winter months.<br />
AREAS LIKELY TO BE AFFECTED MOST<br />
Areas that are heavily paved are prone to flooding due to rapid run-off and insufficient drainage.<br />
*See Appendix map of Historically Significant Flooding Events.<br />
PROBABLE DURATION<br />
Most flash flood events last a matter of hours. Rarely do these events last longer unless there are<br />
mitigating circumstances such as prolonged rainfall events.<br />

SEASONAL PATTERNS<br />
Sinkholes are affected by significant water runoff<br />
which can collapse the sides or roof of the sinkhole.<br />
While sinkholes can collapse and enlarge at<br />
anytime, periods of heavy or extended precipitation<br />
tend to be the best times for sinkhole activity.<br />
AREAS LIKELY TO BE AFFECTED MOST<br />
A study by <strong>Missouri</strong> State University indicated that there are at least 2,500 sinkholes in <strong>Greene</strong> <strong>County</strong>.<br />
While known sinkholes have been identified throughout <strong>Greene</strong> <strong>County</strong>, the most heavily concentrated area<br />
of sinkholes are in the Northwest corner of the City of Springfield and an area along 160 Hwy. between<br />
Springfield and Willard.<br />
PROBABLE DURATION<br />
Once a sinkhole forms, it is difficult to repair in order to make the area around it usable. In most instances,<br />
it is best to leave the sinkhole alone if at all possible. If repair must be made, strict adherence<br />
to <strong>County</strong> Design Standards Document, Section 107: Sinkholes and Karst Features must be followed.<br />

While known sinkholes have been identified throughout <strong>Greene</strong> <strong>County</strong>, the most heavily concentrated area<br />
of sinkholes are in the Northwest corner of the City of Springfield and an area along 160 Hwy. between<br />

PROBABLE DURATION<br />
Once a sinkhole forms, it is difficult to repair in order to make the area around it usable. In most instances,<br />
it is best to leave the sinkhole alone if at all possible. If repair must be made, strict adherence<br />

SEASONAL PATTERNS<br />
Sinkholes are affected by significant water runoff<br />
which can collapse the sides or roof of the sinkhole.<br />
While sinkholes can collapse and enlarge at<br />
anytime, periods of heavy or extended precipitation<br />
tend to be the best times for sinkhole activity.<br />
AREAS LIKELY TO BE AFFECTED MOST<br />
A study by <strong>Missouri</strong> State University indicated that there are at least 2,500 sinkholes in <strong>Greene</strong> <strong>County</strong>.<br />
While known sinkholes have been identified throughout <strong>Greene</strong> <strong>County</strong>, the most heavily concentrated area<br />
of sinkholes are in the Northwest corner of the City of Springfield and an area along 160 Hwy. between<br />
Springfield and Willard.<br />
PROBABLE DURATION<br />
Once a sinkhole forms, it is difficult to repair in order to make the area around it usable. In most instances,<br />
it is best to leave the sinkhole alone if at all possible. If repair must be made, strict adherence<br />
to <strong>County</strong> Design Standards Document, Section 107: Sinkholes and Karst Features must be followed.<br />

SEASONAL PATTERNS<br />
Tornado “season” typically runs from March to June in<br />
the spring, and from October to November in the fall.<br />
In the recent past, tornados have occurred much earlier<br />
in the year.<br />
Thunderstorms, hail and lightning usually occur during<br />
the spring and fall months. However, given the right<br />
conditions, thunderstorms can occur anywhere, anytime.<br />
AREAS LIKELY TO BE AFFECTED MOST<br />
All of <strong>Greene</strong> <strong>County</strong> is susceptible to the risk of tornados, thunderstorms, hail and lighting.<br />
PROBABLE DURATION<br />
Usually tornados are short lived and dissipate in less than one hour. Thunderstorms can last for days<br />
dropping a significant amount of rain creating the potential for flooding.<br />

SEASONAL PATTERNS<br />
Wildfire season usually begins in February and extends<br />
through mid-May, and begins again in October and goes<br />
through mid-December .<br />
Severe fire season in <strong>Greene</strong> <strong>County</strong> is cyclic in nature,<br />
usually occurring every 15-20 years. The last severe<br />
season was in 1980. The season usually corresponds<br />
with drought cycles.<br />
AREAS LIKELY TO BE AFFECTED MOST<br />
According to the Forestry Division of the <strong>Missouri</strong> Department of Conservation (MDC), there appears to be a significant<br />
risk of wildfire to the wildland/urban interface. As the urban area expands more into the rural countryside,<br />
the risk of wildfire increases. MDC states that the threat of wildfire is growing due to numerous fallen limbs<br />
due to the 2007 ice storm.<br />
PROBABLE DURATION<br />
Wildfire occurs each year in the Ozarks, including areas of <strong>Greene</strong> <strong>County</strong>. Due to the cyclic nature of<br />
wildfire season, it is difficult to pinpoint exactly when and how severe a season will be. It is a definite<br />
fact, however, that wildfire season severity and drought go hand in hand.<br />

snowfall each year between November and March.<br />
AREAS LIKELY TO BE AFFECTED MOST<br />
Any area of <strong>Greene</strong> <strong>County</strong> is susceptible to a strong winter storm.<br />

National Weather Service - Strong winter storm<br />
events can be forecast in some cases days from the<br />

hours in advance of a storm.<br />
