What is the weather like along the Mississippi? Windy, Rainy, Snowy?

Question

I'm doing a science project, and I need to pick 20 acres of land that I can use to make myself completely sustainable.

Thanks for all your help!

Answer 1

Now, if your talking about the mississippi river, then the weather varies depending on what state it borders.

If you mean Mississippi, the weather last night was rainy, but weather depends on your climate and where you are located. You should go to weatherchannel.com or something. :]

I hope i somewhat helped you out.

Answer 2

Depends on which side of the mississippi river you are on and the direction of the low level winds.  If you get moisture off of the Gulf of Mexico then showers and thunderstorms are more likely.  If you are on the west side of the Mississippi your weather is drier and moister on the other side.

Answer 3

The Mississippi runs north to south.  The climate varies widely.  Wow, sustainable on 20 acres.  That could be quite hard to do.
