Weather
MIDWEST
Above average warmth across the Midwest is expected to keep harvest at a good pace through the weekend. Continued dryness is hindering wheat. Much of the south corn belt and plains are in moderate to severe drought and producers are reporting even more damage expanding over the western belt. Heat relief will arrive early next week, compliments of several dry cold fronts sweeping through the central plains. There is hardly any moisture along these fronts, so no big field delays are anticipated. SOUTHEAST
A stable pattern returns to the deep south in the walker of Milton’s damage. Sunny and warm days into the next will help recovery efforts and fall field work. Drought has expanded across the cotton areas of the Mississippi Delta. We can expect our first taste of autumn in the deep south by midweek of next week.
WEST & NORTHWEST
Heat has retreated a little bit across the west, even more days of favorable harvest weather expected into next week
A pattern change comes to the northwest next week. Day time highs will eb much cooler. Spotty showers for the northwest and cannot rule out a little mountain snow in spots by the end of next week.
