Following Thursday's WASDE report, USDA's Economic Research Service will issue updates to their crop outlooks Monday. The updates are not market-moving events but provide additional supporting information. Otherwise, after USDA's weekly grain inspections report at 10 a.m. CST, there are no significant reports Monday. The latest weather forecasts and any export sales news will get their usual attention.
Weather

Drier and warmer weather eastward should help to melt snow across the northern tier, and aid in recovery efforts where severe weather and devastating tornadoes went through Friday night.
