Saturated soils, full river basins and fears of a wet spring have concern over spring flood potential at full throttle.

The next seven days will have favorable weather for the corn and soybean crops in Brazil, except for northeast Brazil. Meanwhile, another storm is aiming for the U.S. Midwest.

Agriculture states had a big share of the 14 billion-dollar weather and climate disaster events recorded in 2019.

All but the northeastern corner of Brazil's soybean areas have had favorable midsummer rainfall.

Here's a look at the weather conditions for the winter wheat growing areas in Europe, the Black Sea region, India, Pakistan and China.

Heavy rains later this week in parts of the Midwest and Delta could lead to flooding.

The central United States, Canadian Prairies, and north Atlantic Ocean were the only global areas to not have substantial warming during 2019.

Heavy rain, heavy snow and closed roads were just part of the effects of the U.S. 2019 Christmas holiday storm.

A large storm system is set to put a heavy precipitation signature at the end of a very wet year in 2019.

The weather pattern looks to be mostly dry in the northwest Midwest and Northern Plains this week so more harvest can get done.

Wet conditions at both planting and harvest led to an example of sub-par 2019 corn yield.

The Northern Plains is expected to see mostly below normal precipitation during the next 10 days. This will allow the corn harvest to continue.

Based on current progress, the region leaving the most corn in the fields will be North Dakota where 64% remains in the field followed by South Dakota at 20%.

The onset of the meteorological winter season has some features that show a notable relationship to El Nino formation in the Pacific Ocean.

Cattle will be facing another storm Friday and Saturday that may bring blizzard conditions to some parts of the Northern Plains. The stormy pattern could take its toll on herd health as well as countryside prices.

The next major winter storm will probably shut down the harvest in some areas of the Northern Plains and Midwest, since at this time of the year it is almost impossible to dry corn in the fields.

Drought is developing in the southern Great Plains and hampering some winter wheat development.

Poor drying conditions, along with difficulty in procuring fuel for grain dryers, continue to impede the harvest in the Midwest and Northern Plains.

Non-El Nino features in the world's tropical regions are making their influence known on global weather systems.

Cold conditions in the past week, along with high moisture levels of corn and soybeans, maintain slow harvest progress in the Midwest and Northern Plains.
