No winner this week. Here is my weekly weather quiz question one more time. Define “Flood Plain.” Here is the correct answer. Flood Plain: In hydrologic terms, the portion of a river valley that has been inundated by the river during historic floods. I’ll have a new weekly weather question for you starting Monday. Please remember to post your answer as a comment by clicking on “no comments /comments” in the upper right hand portion of this page under the caption, then add your comment. The first person to post the correct answer will win a week of free personalized weather forecasts tailored to your needs. The answer has to be a comment to win. An email answer will not count. Good luck.
