A very strong storm system will move through the country next week. The system will have access to plenty of moisture, creating heavy snow across the Northern Plains, and widespread precipitation elsewhere, including chances for severe weather across the South. Strong winds...

Expected La Nina presence through 2022-23 winter brings a wide range of moisture prospect and drought recovery potential across the western U.S.

Extreme heat continues to bake Argentina's growing regions this week with some limited showers. A front will move through with some better showers, but then dryness takes over for next week. Between the heat and the dryness, crops in Argentina will continue to be stressed...

Easing of heavy moisture inflow from the Indian and Pacific Oceans into eastern Australia has been favorable for improving wheat harvest conditions.

A dynamic cold front will create strong to severe thunderstorms across the south-central and Southeast U.S. Tuesday afternoon and evening. This could include large hail, damaging winds, and possible long-track tornadoes.

After a week of above-normal temperatures, a return to a cold winter feel comes to end November and start December.

A low-pressure system is forecast to emerge from the central Rockies and push into the Southern Plains on Thanksgiving Day. Precipitation with this system could help relieve some of the drought across the region.

Smaller disturbances that grow into larger ones are frequently mishandled by weather models. The results are usually wild forecast differences from run-to-run. Usually this happens with systems at time scales longer than a week out but can even happen to ones that are only a...

The big Edwards Aquifer in Texas has had reduced usage up to more than one third because of drought.

Ongoing dryness in the Plains and western Midwest means no soil moisture and streamflow recharge during the fall 2022 season.

Very cold air continues to move into the Continental U.S. in waves through the coming weekend. But the pattern turns more progressive and warmer next week. Lower temperatures will still occur where snowpack exists.

A blast of arctic air is moving through in mid-November, but another could show up in December as well. The DTN forecast is suggesting a similar pattern to November for December, which could have some significant effects on feed and forage availability and pricing for livestock...

Cold Arctic air set to move across the U.S. interior in the next five days may kill off some winter wheat which is already starting out in the poorest condition on record.

Extreme dryness in the Ohio Valley during October is a big reason why the Mississippi River dropped to record-low levels.

A winter storm will bring heavy snowfall to the Northern Plains with potential blizzard conditions while Tropical Storm Nicole could be hurricane status before reaching Florida. This will be followed by a burst of arctic air that could challenge low-temperature records.

Winter wheat in the southwestern Plains has gone through horrendous weather conditions thus far. This area has also missed out on recent precipitation that has occurred elsewhere in the country. Will the active pattern give the southwestern Plains any chance for reducing...

With La Nina in control, weather conditions are expected to follow its typical pattern of producing clippers across northern areas, resulting in colder and wetter conditions across the north and warmer and drier conditions across the south. However, the pattern also favors...

La Nina-related flooding rain is hitting Eastern Australia for the third time in less than two years.

An active pattern over the next couple of weeks will feature storm systems that seem to be on the heels of the last. Models are understandably inconsistent with these features.
