Back from the weekend with clocks correctly adjusted, traders will check the latest weather forecasts and any new developments from Ukraine before pausing at 8 a.m. CDT to see if USDA has an export sale announcement. USDA's weekly report of grain export inspections will be released at 10 a.m. Monday is also the final day of trading for March U.S. grain futures.
Weather
Coming off a very cold weekend, temperatures are quickly flipping to mild and the country will find these milder temperatures through the week as most places will feel like spring has finally arrived and it's here to stay. There will be some showers, however. A weak system will move out of the Rockies and into the Southern Plains on Monday, bringing scattered showers to eastern Oklahoma and Texas into the southern Delta, which may include some severe storms.
