Mild, dry weather covers the Corn Belt

Across the Corn Belt, mild, dry weather favors a return to fieldwork—including late-season corn and soybean harvesting—following last week’s rainfall. Monday’s high temperatures could approach the 80-degree mark in the southwestern Corn Belt.

On the Plains, mild, dry weather is promoting late-season winter wheat planting and other fieldwork, including harvest activities. Monday’s high temperatures will top 80° in many parts of Texas.

In the South, locally heavy showers stretch from western Florida into southern Virginia. Dry weather has returned to areas from the Mississippi Delta westward, but lowland flooding persists along several rivers in the western Gulf Coast region.

In the West, showers linger in the Pacific Northwest, following weekend downpours. Meanwhile, a plume of locally heavy precipitation stretches across drought-affected areas from northern and central California to the Intermountain West. In the Southwest, warm, dry, breezy weather prevails in advance of an approaching storm.
