The featured map displays the USDA crop progress report from this past Sunday for percentage of corn acres harvested and the departure from recent average for the third week of October. A late maturing crop and some wet stretches in October have put the pace of harvest behind schedule. Recent freezing weather over much of the state will help kill off the crop and speed up the dry down period. The weather looks dry this weekend with chances of showers arriving next week.
