Across the Corn Belt, cold, mostly dry weather prevails, although patchy snow showers are occurring from the upper Mississippi Valley into the Great Lakes region. Tuesday morning’s low temperatures dipped below 0°F in scattered locations from North Dakota to Wisconsin, following last week’s record-setting warmth. Any remaining corn and soybean harvest activities are largely concentrated across the eastern Corn Belt, where fields are wetter.
On the Plains, chilly conditions linger, especially in Montana and the Dakotas.
