Harvest has already begun but will be increasing over the next few weeks. What does the weather look like as combines roll?

Drought still covers almost half the major winter wheat areas as seeding gets underway for the 2023-24 crop.

The weather pattern has been more active thanks to El Nino across most of South America, but the heavy rain in southern Brazil has led to flooding concerns as spring planting begins.

It did not always feel like it, but bouts of extreme heat were quite frequent for much of the central and Western Corn Belt this summer. Drought conditions likely played a major role in the extreme heat.

Last week, models insisted on extreme heat for most of this week and through mid-September. They made a nearly 180-degree turn as milder air now floats into the Corn Belt and probably sticks around through mid-September instead of the heat.

With the turn to September, the spring planting season is in sight for South America. El Nino will be the biggest influence on the weather pattern for the next several months, and producers down there are likely to be happy about it.

Heat will return to the middle of the country during the next few days. Several days of well-above-normal temperatures are likely for next week, as are drier conditions. But some areas are going to luck out with some more moderate readings while rain is not completely out of...

Twice in the past 20 years, August heat waves caused a notable decline in projected record U.S. corn crops.

Recent rainfall has come too late to help this year's crop and is hampering harvest progress in some areas. The forecast remains a little volatile, especially toward the end of next week.

The Central U.S. has been in a major heat wave during the last week or so, but that will end this weekend. However, there are indications that the heat will return in September. Whether or not that comes with increased rainfall is still being determined.

High heat index values pose yield risk to crops along with safety and health stress to animals.

Hurricane Hilary, which underwent rapid intensification on Aug. 17, is forecast to move over southern California Aug. 20-21 with widespread heavy rainfall and concerns about flooding and mudslides.

The first seven months of 2023 rank the highest on record for billion-dollar weather and climate disaster events.

Heat is starting to build across the Plains and will be spreading through much of the country over the next several days. The heat will lose its intensity for northern and eastern areas with time, but not before bringing stressful conditions to many areas.

Heavy rains over much of the Corn Belt during the last several weeks have eased drought across a lot of the region. But even in areas of heavy rainfall, drought still exists on the map. Why is drought showing up even though heavy rain has turned around all sorts of drought...

A pace of corn dent that is one week ahead of average may be a sign of stress in the Iowa corn crop.

After a nice stretch of mild and rather wet weather across a lot of the U.S. Corn Belt, there are model indications that a hot ridge could form up across the middle of the country for the end of August and beginning of September.

If not for an extremely dry period from mid-May to mid-June, the variable rainfall pattern and overall mild temperatures this summer would have set up most of the Corn Belt with high potential.
