Brownfield Ag Weather Today

An early-season heat wave across the north-central U.S. will break over the next few days, as a storm system marches eastward.  However, extreme heat has developed farther south, with summer-like temperatures expected to spread from the southern Plains into the Southeast.  In contrast, parts of the northern Plains may experience weekend frost, shortly after approaching or reaching 100°F.  Before the chilly weather arrives, drought-easing rainfall could total 2 to 4 inches or more in the Dakotas and environs.  Elsewhere, cool, unsettled weather will prevail in the Northwest during the next several days, with weekend rain and snow showers extending as far south as the Great Basin and Intermountain West.
