Across the Corn Belt, showers in the vicinity of a cold front stretch from the upper Great Lakes region to Nebraska. Across the remainder of the Midwest, warm, dry weather continues to promote corn and soybean maturation, as well as early-season harvest efforts. Friday’s high temperatures will approach or reach 90°F as far north as central Illinois.
On the Plains, the season’s first freeze occurred Friday morning in parts of Montana, where temperatures fell to 30°F or below in locations such as Cut Bank, Havre, and Lewistown.
