The DTN brief forecasts active troughs moving across North America this weekend, with a system spreading widespread rain and storms from the Southern Plains into the Midwest. Temperatures are expected below normal in the Northwest and above normal in the South and East.
Widespread Midwest rain supports planting progress and soil moisture, which tempers weather-driven price support for corn and soybeans. Heat in the South and East may slow fieldwork there.
After 445 past neutral weather events, CORN moved a median +0.1% over 5 sessions (52% higher; middle half -1.4% to +1.6%), and +0.7% over 20.
After 324 past neutral weather events, SOY moved a median +0.0% over 5 sessions (52% higher; middle half -1.4% to +1.7%), and +0.7% over 20.
