Next U.S. Winter Storm Occurs Thursday Into Saturday

Kansas City, January 7 (World Weather Inc.) – A late week winter storm will bring a mix of precipitation types from central and eastern Texas through the Delta to the middle Atlantic Coast States Thursday into Saturday. The storm will bring travel delays, livestock stress and more moisture to these areas. There will be some potential for power outages because of ice accumulations in a few areas, although freezing rain should not be a widespread problem. In the meantime, another round of significant snowfall is expected.

Brazil’s Wet Bias May Lead To Safrinha Corn Planting Delays

Kansas City, January 6 (World Weather Inc.) – La Nina-like conditions are prevailing across South America inducing a steady rate of drying in far southern Brazil and some neighboring areas in Paraguay, Uruguay and Argentina. In the meantime, rain is falling frequently and sometimes excessively in center west and center south Brazil. The persistence of La Nina like conditions will lead to more drying in Rio Grande do Sul and more wet weather in the center west and center south. There is potential that a little soybean and corn yield may be lost due to dryness in the south, but there may be bigger concern about too much rain slowing early soybean maturation and harvesting in center west and center south Brazil delaying the planting of Safrinha corn which may lead to some additional corn production losses if seasonal rains do not last longer than usual.

Argentina Drying To Be Accelerated By Heat; For How Long?

Kansas City, January 6 (World Weather Inc.) – Argentina dried out a little more aggressively during this past week in central and eastern parts of the nation, although subsoil moisture was still rated favorably. Similar conditions are expected through the end of this week. A building high pressure ridge this weekend and next week will induce hotter temperatures while the dry bias remains. Faster drying and rising crop stress will result next week as the situation in Argentina becomes a little more significant. No major production cuts are expected for now, though concern over production declines will increase if drier- and warmer-than-normal conditions persist during the second half of January and into February. Dryness will also impact Uruguay, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil and Paraguay.
