What DTN Is Watching

The government shutdown continues and as a result the report lineup will be quiet on Friday. However, the Senate will hold another vote on Friday in an attempt to pass the funding bill and end the shutdown. Ag traders will continue to rely on basis and spreads for near term supply and demand insights, but may default to chart/technical guidelines to close the week.

Weather

A clipper system is moving through the Great Lakes and Northeast on Friday, producing scattered showers and a few thunderstorms that may develop all the way down to the Gulf of America. The last clipper in this week's train is moving through the Pacific Northwest and will be a potent one as it taps into some very cold air across Canada this weekend.
