An Oklahoma cattle market expert fears regional drought impact on U.S. cow herd numbers.
A strong system currently in the western U.S. will move into the Plains and move quickly through the Upper Midwest on Wednesday. Incredibly strong winds with gusts approaching or exceeding 70 mph are expected across a wide area from South Dakota to the Texas Panhandle and east into Iowa. Severe weather will also be a possibility, centered around the Iowa-Minnesota border area Wednesday afternoon and evening.
A strong storm moving through the West and a return to dryness over Argentina and southern Brazil are the weather factors holding the market's attention Tuesday.
A strong storm system is building in the West early this week that will bring widespread heavy precipitation to the region, helping to reduce drought.
Damage from storms during the weekend is still being assessed in the Midsouth. Weather will cooperate with recovery efforts for a couple of days before turning unfavorable later in the week. And decent precipitation over Argentina but not southern Brazil are the weather factors holding the market's attention Monday.
