January Crop Report Highlights Cold Wave and Regional Impacts

The Weather Bureau summarises January 1905 as colder than average in most districts with light precipitation, milder conditions in the Rocky Mountains, and heavier rain in the Southern plateau and California. A severe cold wave from the 25th to 28th reached extreme South Florida, while Central and West Gulf states faced excessive rain. Winter wheat remained well protected west of the Mississippi and in parts of the Ohio Valley, but snow protection was lacking in parts of Illinois and Indiana, risking damage from severe weather. On the North Pacific coast the outlook is favorable except along the Sacramento River where heavy rains caused damage.
