South Africa Will Remain Wet; Localized Flooding A Concern

Kansas City, February 13 (World Weather Inc.) – Waves of rain were noted in much of South Africa’s summer grain, oilseed, and cotton areas since the beginning of February. Portions of Free State and North West did not receive enough rain to fix the moisture deficits and are still looking for more significant precipitation in the coming weeks. Eastern South Africa otherwise had ample moisture to maintain aggressive growth. The main production areas will again have several opportunities for rain during the coming week. A disturbance will bring heavier rainfall to North West and neighboring locations next week that will likely fix the dryness in several locations. Localized flooding will be a concern as well, though crop damage should be minimal. Conditions will either improve or remain favorable across crop country.
