Brownfield Ag Weather Today

A slow-moving storm system currently centered near the Kansas-Missouri border will drift eastward, crossing the Ohio Valley on Friday and exiting the Atlantic Coast early in the Memorial Day weekend.  Additional rainfall could total 1 to 2 inches along and near the storm’s path—with higher amounts possible along a trailing cold front sweeping through the Southeast, where locally severe thunderstorms may occur on Thursday and Friday.  In contrast, little or no rain will fall during the next 5 days from California to the southern half of the Plains, accompanied by early-season heat.  Weekend temperatures will top 100°F on the southern High Plains.  Farther north, however, cool, showery weather will engulf areas from the Pacific Northwest to the northern Plains, with weekend snow expected at some high-elevation sites in the Cascades and northern Rockies.
