Unsettled weather holds in the eastern Corn Belt
On the Plains, cool weather prevails across the southern half of the region. Meanwhile, warmth is further expanding across the northern Plains. Dry weather throughout the nation’s mid-section is promoting fieldwork, including summer crop harvesting and winter wheat planting.
Across the Corn Belt, favorably dry weather prevails across the upper Midwest, although soil saturation remains a concern as the heart of the corn and soybean harvest season approaches. Meanwhile, cool, cloudy, showery conditions persist across the eastern Corn Belt, curtailing most fieldwork activities.
In the South, showers linger across the southern Mid-Atlantic region, resulting in harvest disruptions and maintaining the risk of local flooding. Showers also dot Florida’s peninsula, but cool, dry weather across the interior Southeast is further reducing topsoil moisture but favoring summer crop harvesting.
In the West, isolated showers stretch from the Four Corners States to the northern Rockies. Cooler air is arriving along the Pacific Coast, but late-season warmth covers the remainder of the western U.S.
