Across the Corn Belt, cooler air and scattered showers trail a cold front stretching from Wisconsin to Nebraska. Across the remainder of the Midwest, warm, sunny weather is ideal for corn and soybean maturation.
On the Plains, showery, significantly cooler air has overspread the northwestern half of the region, where Friday’s high temperatures will remain mostly at or below 70°F. This follows recent extreme heat; September temperature records were tied or broken in locations such as Glasgow, Montana (106°F on the 7th) and Valentine, Nebraska (106°F on the 8th).
