Across the Corn Belt, chilly, breezy weather prevails in the wake of a departing cold front. Lingering snow showers are confined to the upper Great Lakes region. Wednesday morning’s temperatures fell below 20° in parts of the upper Midwest.
On the Plains, cool, dry weather prevails. Wednesday morning’s minimum temperatures locally fell below 10° in the Dakotas and dipped to 32° or lower as far south as Texas’ northern panhandle. However, temperatures were not low enough to significantly threaten winter wheat, which on March 28 was reported to be 45% jointing in Oklahoma and 12% jointing in Colorado.
