Drought has been a major topic of concern for farmers this season. Very few areas have not seen some category of dryness or drought show up on the Drought Monitor this season. That begs the question: With drought so entrenched across the country, how much rain will it...

A series of cold fronts moving through the country will bring in some colder air to the eastern half of the country through next week. This pattern will not be locked into place for long as the pattern starts to flip for the end of October.

A wildfire which destroyed a prominent 4-H camp and the lowest harvested winter wheat acreage in over 130 years point to more impact of the La Nina-enhanced drought of 2022.

A brief but potent shot of cold air will come sweeping down through the U.S. later this week. It will likely bring widespread frosts and freezes to the Corn Belt, which may damage corn and soybeans that have yet to reach maturity.
