Weather and farming outlook for Texas crops
No rain expected for the near future as temperatures rise across Texas. Sunday’s cold spell failed to bring freezing temperatures to south and east regions. Community Public Service reports a low of 2.5 degrees, with rising temperatures and increased cloudiness reducing rain chances. Farmers face growing crop pressure as melon potato and tomato plantings start and February corn planting approaches.
