Across the Corn Belt, scattered frost was noted again Friday in the Great Lakes region, mainly outside primary corn and soybean production areas. As a result, late-developing corn and soybeans continue to move toward maturity, amid cool but favorably dry conditions. Friday’s high temperatures will remain below 70°F in much of the Great Lakes region.
On the Plains, scattered showers are developing across Montana, which on September 25 led the nation with topsoil moisture rated 95% very short to short.
