Traders remain glued to the latest weather forecasts and will be checking rainfall amounts from over the weekend. USDA's weekly grain export inspections report is set for 10 a.m. CDT, followed by the Crop Progress report at 3 p.m. Corn and soybean crop ratings will reflect the haves and have-nots of the latest rains and traders will also note wheat harvest progress.
Weather
A zone of scattered showers will continue along a stalled front from Texas through Michigan and may cause flooding on Monday, with scattered showers behind it across the rest of the Plains and Midwest. Regardless of flooding potential, the rains will disrupt the HRW wheat harvest. Additional flooding potential may occur in areas that received lots of rain this weekend in the Midwest, but the showers will be beneficial for developing corn and soybeans.
