Across the Corn Belt, rain is overspreading areas from the Mississippi Valley westward. Meanwhile, mild, dry weather prevails in the eastern Corn Belt, where Tuesday’s high temperatures could reach or exceed 70°.
On the Plains, a storm system crossing Kansas is producing chilly rain across a broad area. The rain is generally benefiting rangeland, pastures, and winter wheat, although flash flooding is occurring in a few areas across the central Plains. Elsewhere, cool, breezy conditions cover the southern Plains, while unfavorably dry weather persists across much of the northern Plains.
