早上很多地方都结霜了，包括堪萨斯州的大部分地区和内布拉斯加州的东部，甚至延伸到了俄克拉荷马州的北部。德克萨斯州的天气也变得很凉爽，尽管温度还在冰点以上。与此同时，北达科他州的温暖和大风天气增加了野火的风险。大平原地区的表层土壤湿度从北达科他州的53%到内布拉斯加州的86%不等，这种普遍的干燥有利于夏季作物的成熟和收割，但对于刚刚发芽的冬小麦来说，水分缺乏。The 6 to 10-day outlook from October 21st to 25th by the USA National Weather Service shows that temperatures in most parts of the USA will be near or above normal levels.
The following is the exclusive compilation of the agricultural weather forecast for Wednesday, October 16, 2024 in the usa by Jinshi Futures App.
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.
The weather is warmer than usual, despite increased cloud cover along the North Pacific coast, with occasional showers. The cotton harvesting progress in Arizona is faster than in previous years, with 69% harvested by October 13, compared to an average of only 25% over the past five years.
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.
Many places experienced frost in the morning, including most areas of Kansas and the eastern part of Nebraska, extending to the northern part of Oklahoma. The weather in Texas has also become cool, although temperatures remain above freezing. Meanwhile, warm and windy conditions in North Dakota have increased the risk of wildfires. The topsoil moisture in the Great Plains region ranges from 53% in North Dakota to 86% in Nebraska. This widespread dryness is beneficial for the maturation and harvesting of summer crops but poses a lack of moisture for newly germinated winter wheat.
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.
The frost this week essentially marks the end of the growing season in the Midwest. However, since 94% of the usa corn crops are fully mature and 95% of soybean leaves have fallen, the impact is minimal. Meanwhile, the ongoing dry weather continues to limit the water supply for winter grains and cover crops. In Illinois, by October 13, only 33% of planned winter wheat has been sown, compared to an average of 39% over the past five years, indicating that some farmers may be waiting for rain to sow.
