Multiple weather systems moving through the region will bring unsettled conditions to southeastern states over the next five days. Farmers and agricultural communities could see significant rainfall totals of 1-2 inches from two separate storm systems, while southwestern areas will experience dry conditions.

Multiple weather systems moving rapidly across the country will continue to bring changeable conditions to various regions, with the southeastern United States expected to bear the brunt of the activity. Agricultural areas in the Southeast could see significant precipitation over the coming five-day period, with rainfall amounts potentially reaching 1 to 2 inches or higher due to two distinct weather events moving through the region.

Meanwhile, agricultural producers in southwestern portions of the country can expect markedly different conditions, with dry weather patterns expected to dominate the five-day forecast period in those areas.
