Brownfield Ag Weather Today

A storm system centered over the upper Mississippi Valley will drift northeastward and slowly weaken, with lingering impacts across a broad area. For example, wind-driven snow and sub-freezing temperatures will continue Friday across the upper Midwest, leading to livestock stress and travel disruptions. Meanwhile, locally heavy showers will persist through Friday in the Northeast, where additional rainfall could total 1 to 2 inches. Cool air in the storm’s wake could lead to weekend freezes as far south as the southern Plains, the Tennessee Valley, and the Atlantic Coast States from Georgia northward. Elsewhere, mostly dry weather will prevail during the next 5 days across the southern half of the U.S., while weekend rain and snow showers will affect the Midwest. Late-season warmth in the West will expand eastward, reaching the nation’s mid-section early next week.
