US Wheat Latest
Kansas, which accounts for almost a quarter of all US winter wheat production, is on the radar screens this morning as the winter-wheat crop emerges from dormancy and increases tillering. Drought in Texas is spreading north through Oklahoma and into the state.
Abnormally dry conditions now cover 64% of the state, according to Allen Motew of QT Weather.
The past week saw highly variable weather conditions with some sub-freezing weather, record warmth, strong winds, rain, tornadoes and hail, he says.
The week ahead will be just as interesting with a brief warm-up before cold settles in with the chance of snow later in the week as temperatures will be far below normal by late this week, he adds.
