Brownfield Ag Weather Today

In the wake of a cold front’s passage, dry air has temporarily overspread the northern and central Plains and much of the Midwest.  However, showers and thunderstorms remain active across the southern and eastern U.S., in advance of the front.  Later in the week, the front will stall and weaken across the lower Southeast, although a low-pressure system may develop over or near Florida’s peninsula or along the southern Atlantic Coast.  Regardless of development, 5-day rainfall totals should reach 2 to 6 inches across the eastern Gulf Coast region, including much of Florida.  Meanwhile, the North American monsoon circulation interacting with an approaching cold front will generate mid- to late-week showers and thunderstorms from the Four Corners States across the Plains and upper Midwest.  In contrast, hot, mostly dry weather will prevail in the Far West.
