Below are all possible answers to this clue ordered by its rank. We think the likely answer to this clue is SODDEN. The Canadian Prairies are a generally a sub-humid to semi-arid region, generally cool enough to support rainfed agriculture – if the trend is indeed towards greater aridity and more extreme precipitation events then the logic of using retention storage becomes an ever more important adaptation strategy as we will need to harvest increasingly precious precipitation. The crossword clue Wetter than wet with 6 letters was last seen on the January 01, 2014. In dry regions this means that a large fraction of annual precipitation may fall in only a few days.

On land the extent to which this trend applies has been less clear until recently. Essentially, where evaporation already exceeds precipitation net evaporation will increase, and net precipitation will increase where it dominates at present. Over the ocean, climatologists generally agree that regions of the ocean with high precipitation already will get wetter, while dry parts of the ocean will see less precipitation the ‘wet gets wetter, dry gets drier’ trend.

Their outlook shows widespread 3-8 inches accumulations possible coming to the San Antonio to Austin stretch of I-35, including the Hill Country, with potential for isolated peak totals around 10-12 inches.
