Here is the agricultural weather tips for Thursday, July 25, 2024 in the United States, exclusively compiled by Jinshi Futures app. In the western region, a cold front interacts with monsoon circulation to produce widely scattered showers from Arizona to Montana. Cooler air has arrived in the northwest Pacific, but the rest of the West continues to experience above-normal temperatures. Due to widespread wildfire smoke, air quality remains poor in several areas from eastern Oregon to the Northern Rockies. In the Great Plains region, record-breaking high temperatures are prevalent in parts of Montana and South Dakota, while hot and dry weather is returning to the rest of the central United States. On July 24, in Montana, Glasgow's daily record high temperature soared to 109°F (about 43.3℃), and Havre reached 107°F (about 41.7℃). For Havre, this is his highest reading since August 3, 2001, when it was 109°F. High temperatures on the North Plains are promoting the harvest of winter wheat and accelerating the maturity of grain sown in the spring. In the corn belt, it is generally dry weather except for some residual showers in the Mississippi River Valley. Today's high temperatures in the Midwest will remain below 80°F (about 26.7℃) near the Great Lakes, but in the western corn and soybean production areas, mainly in Nebraska and South Dakota, they will range from 90°F (about 32.2℃) to 100°F (about 37.8℃). Although most corn and soybeans in the Midwest are growing well, producers are concerned about recent drought trends and the slow accumulation of heat to the east. In the southern region, cloudy and shower weather continues from the west coast of the Gulf of Mexico to various southern Atlantic states. In most areas, the distribution of rainfall this week is sufficiently even to avoid widespread flooding, although concerns of flash floods exist in parts of the Texas coast, southwest Louisiana, and North Carolina. Rain continues to be generally conducive to pastures and immature summer crops in drought-affected southeastern regions. Southern rainfall will become less organized, although showers will continue in the coming days, and the total rainfall for the five days in the west coast of the Gulf of Mexico and the southeastern part of the country will exceed 2 inches. Thunderstorms in the Midwest should return over the weekend and early next week, although only scattered areas will receive more than 1 inch of rain. Meanwhile, the western monsoon-related showers will decrease, and rainfall is expected to be very scarce after Saturday. In addition, hot weather will continue over much of the West, but the focus of extreme heat waves will shift to the central part of the country. By early next week, high temperatures of 100°F (about 37.8℃) will cover the central and southern plains and possible southwestern corn belt. The 6-10 day outlook from the US National Weather Service between July 30-August 3 shows that almost the entire country will experience above-normal temperatures, with the region from the plains and Midwest to the northeastern part of the country most likely to experience hotter than normal weather. At the same time, rainfall in the northwest Pacific and one-third of the eastern United States is above normal and contrasts with drought conditions in the Great Plains, Rockies, Basin and Interior West.

Western United States Cool and rainy weather extends from the northwestern Pacific to the northern Rockies. This rain is beneficial for crops in the northwest, including winter wheat and small grains sown in the spring. At the same time, the hot weather in the Southwest is beneficial for farming and crop growth, although there is a high wildfire threat in some areas of Arizona and New Mexico.

In the western region, a cold front interacts with monsoon circulation to produce widely scattered showers from Arizona to Montana.

Corn Planting Area of the United States Showers and a few thunderstorms extend southwest from the Upper Midwest. At the same time, warm and mostly dry weather in the eastern corn belt is favorable for late-season corn and soybean planting, as well as winter wheat growth.

Weather Outlook Initially, the active weather in most parts of the United States will eventually consolidate along the cold front sweeping through the central United States on Tuesday. Subsequently, the cold front will reach the coastal states along the Atlantic Ocean on Thursday, although cool and unstable showers will persist in the Great Lakes states for a few days. According to preliminary reports, the United States will breathe a sigh of relief from the continuous thunderstorms that triggered more than 500 tornadoes in May. Before calm weather arrives, precipitation in the eastern half of the United States may reach 1 to 3 inches, except in the southern hinterland. In addition, early heat waves will expand in the western United States this weekend, with maximum temperatures exceeding 110 degrees Fahrenheit and covering lower altitude areas in the desert southwest.

In the corn belt, it is generally dry weather except for some residual showers in the Mississippi River Valley. Today's high temperatures in the Midwest will remain below 80°F (about 26.7℃) near the Great Lakes, but in the western corn and soybean production areas, mainly in Nebraska and South Dakota, they will range from 90°F (about 32.2℃) to 100°F (about 37.8℃). Although most corn and soybeans in the Midwest are growing well, producers are concerned about recent drought trends and the slow accumulation of heat to the east.
