U.S. Cold To Increase Energy Demands; No Major Crop Impacts

Kansas City, November 27 (World Weather Inc.) – The first outbreak of winter cold weather will evolve in portions of the United States outside the southwest in the coming days. Temperatures will drop below to well below normal with the greatest deviation from normal temperatures occurring in the northern Plains and Midwest. Energy demands will increase and there is potential for upper portions of the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers to freeze. Barge traffic may be impacted due to lower river levels. Impacts to crops will be minimal as temperatures will not cool enough to damage winter grains. Light snow will otherwise occur in portions of the Plains and Midwest in the coming days as the colder air pushes into the U.S. Livestock may be stressed in areas that experience the coldest weather.

Europe Crops Pushing Into Dormancy On Cool Weather

Kansas City, November 26 (World Weather Inc.) – Early-season winter grain and oilseed planting advanced slowly in Europe due to wet weather earlier this autumn. However, drier than normal weather during the past month gradually improve planting conditions across the continent. With planting winding down and soil moisture at ample levels, the outlook for the upcoming crop is favorable. Europe will see a mix of precipitation and sunshine during the coming week that will help keep soil moisture near current levels. Late-season fieldwork may advance slowly in the wettest locations, though producers should be able to get into the fields between precipitation events. Winter crops are dormant in most of the continent excepting the southwest and parts of Italy and Greece.
