The following is the agricultural weather forecast for the United States on Thursday, November 14, 2024, exclusively compiled by Golden Ten 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.

Unstable and rainy weather persists in the northern parts of the Pacific coast. The rest of the western United States is dry. In many areas, field work for this season is nearing completion, although cotton harvesting in Arizona (completed 73% by November 10) and California (65% completed) is still ongoing.

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.

Mild and dry weather is favorable for end-of-season field work, except in areas where recent rainfall or snowfall has been particularly intense. Some areas in the northern plains still face severe drought issues. As of November 10, 81% of Montana's topsoil moisture rating was classified as extremely dry to dry, while South Dakota was at 77%. On the same date, 75% of winter wheat in South Dakota had emerged (significantly behind the 90% 5-year average level), reflecting the dry conditions.

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.

Earlier today, the area east of the Mississippi River was experiencing rainfall, where most summer crops had already been harvested. Meanwhile, mild and dry weather covered the western corn belt following recent rainfall. By November 10, winter wheat planting in Missouri was 86% complete, while in Michigan it had reached 100%.
