Brownfield Ag Weather Today

A system currently crossing the south-central U.S. will move northeastward, reaching the eastern Corn Belt by Thursday.  Significant rain will fall along and near the track of the storm, while showers and locally severe thunderstorms will occur in the vicinity of the trailing cold front.  Additional rainfall should total 1 to 2 inches or more across portions of the southern Plains and in most areas east of a line from eastern Texas to Lake Michigan.  Rainfall could top 4 inches in the lower Mississippi Valley and environs.  In contrast, little or no precipitation will occur during the next 5 days from the Rockies to the northern and central Plains and upper Midwest.  Elsewhere, late-week storminess grazing the Pacific Coast States will result in increasingly showery weather, especially in California.  Warm weather will cover much of the country, except for briefly cool, blustery conditions in the wake of the departing Midwestern storm system.
