Scattered showers, t-storms & near-seasonal temperatures across most of the Heartland

Across the Corn Belt, early Friday, a zone of showers and thunderstorms was shifting eastward across Wisconsin, northern and western Illinois.  Friday’s Midwestern high temperatures should generally range from near 80°F in the eastern Corn Belt to 90°F in parts of the western Corn Belt.  Despite beneficial showers in recent weeks, drought impacts on pastures and summer crops persist in parts of the northern and western Corn Belt. 

On the Plains, a cold front moving across eastern areas is generating showers and band of showers & t-storms.
