weather was good over the weekend, but some drought areas of the Great Plains missed out of on rain (KS). Rain fell the most in southwestern Minnesota, northern Iowa, northern Nebraska, central Oklahoma and central and southern Texas. The European model and
lessor extend GFS model, removed rain from the West Texas for this week. On Friday there might be some light frosts across the Dakota’s. All US. crop areas will get rain at one time or another in the next ten days.
Canada’s
western Saskatchewan and east-central Alberta will remain mostly dry over the next 7-10 days. Brazil’s center west and center south crop areas will remain mostly dry. Australia will see net drying
