Brownfield Ag Weather Today

During the next 5 days, much of the country will experience near- or above-normal temperatures.  Over the weekend, however, pleasantly cool air will overspread the northern Plains.  Early next week, some of that cool weather will reach the Midwest.  In contrast, relentless heat will prevail across the south-central U.S., including Texas.  In addition, heat should re-intensify across the Northwest.  Across the remainder of the western U.S., including the Four Corner States and the Great Basin, an active monsoon circulation should produce widespread showers and provide limited drought relief, although flash flooding may occur.  Locally heavy thunderstorms may develop during the weekend across the northern and eastern Corn Belt, with 1- to 3-inch totals possible.  In contrast, little or no rain will fall during the next 5 days across the central and southern Plains and the southwestern Corn Belt, while spotty thundershowers will dot the Southeast.
