Highlights: Tropical Storm Allison's slow-moving remnants lingered over the western and central Gulf Coast States for nearly a week, producing rainfall in excess of 30 inches at a few locations and causing extensive flooding from eastern Texas to southern Mississippi. Allison made landfall on the night of June 5-6 along the Texas coast near Galveston, drifted as far north as Lufkin, TX, on June 7, then returned to near Galveston Bay on the night of June 9-10. After drifting eastward during the ensuing 24 hours, Allison's remnant circulation turned more northward, making landfall in southern Louisiana during the night of June 10-11. Agricultural effects included fieldwork disruptions, locally submerged summer crops, and some flood damage to farm infrastructure. However, the rain also helped to vanquish lingering long-term drought effects in the central Gulf Coast region, including salt-water intrusion into freshwater marshes. Elsewhere in the South, widespread showers in the southern Atlantic region further eased long-term drought and benefited pastures and summer crops. Farther north, widespread showers further eased long-term moisture deficits in the lower Ohio and middle Mississippi Valleys. Although only light showers fell across the northern Corn Belt, cool weather and damp soils continued to hamper final summer crop planting and corn and soybean emergence. Corn Belt temperatures ranged from 4 to 10 degrees F below normal. Meanwhile on the southern Plains, hot weather (weekly temperatures up to 7 degrees F above normal) hastened winter wheat maturation and favored wheat harvesting, but stressed emerging summer crops. In contrast, cool weather (as much as 6 degrees F below normal) and widespread rainfall affected the northern and central Plains. In Montana, significant precipitation aided drought-stressed pastures and small grains. In contrast, mostly dry weather prevailed in the Northwest, further reducing soil moisture availability for pastures and dryland small grains. Farther south, hot weather (up to 7 degrees F above normal) persisted in the Southwest and returned to much of California, increasing irrigation and electrical demands. Early in the week, unusually cool weather enveloped the Northwest and northern High Plains, resulting in more than three dozen daily records and a few monthly record lows. On the 4th, June records were set in Eureka, NV (19 degrees F), and Klamath Falls, OR (23 degrees F). A June record was tied at Grants Pass, OR (32 degrees F), where the last spring freeze normally occurs on April 30. A day later in Idaho, Pocatello's low of 29 degrees F missed their June record (28 degrees F on June 7, 1995) by 1 degree F. Warmth quickly returned to the West, including Utah, where daily-record highs on June 8 in Delta (101 degrees F) and Coalville (93 degrees F) came just 3 days after daily-record lows of 29 and 26 degrees F, respectively. Meanwhile, persistent heat baked the southwestern and south-central United States. In southern Texas, Brownsville posted consecutive daily-record highs of 97 degrees F on June 6 and 7. Phoenix, AZ, recorded 111 degrees F on the 8th, 12 days earlier than the 1896-1995 normal first observance of a high at or above 110 degrees F. Snow accompanied the cool outbreak in the northern Rockies, where 24-hour snowfall totals on June 3-4 reached 19 inches in parts of Granite and Deer Lodge Counties, MT. In eastern Montana, Glasgow measured 3.06 inches of rain during the first 10 days of June, accounting for 64 percent of their year-to-date total. Long-term precipitation deficits persisted, however, in the northern Plains and northern Rockies. In Great Falls, MT, the June 1-10 rainfall of 1.08 inches provided only limited relief from a 9.91-inch deficit that accumulated during the preceding 20 months (October 1999 - May 2001), during which precipitation totaled 14.10 inches (59 percent of normal). Farther east, cool conditions eased by week's end across the upper Midwest. Nevertheless, Rochester, MN, experienced below-normal temperatures for 19 consecutive days (May 21 - June 8), during which highs averaged 61 degrees F (12 degrees F below normal). Farther south, June 1-10 rainfall exceeded 3 inches in many areas from the central Plains into the Corn Belt, including 5.91 inches in St. Joseph, MO, 3.96 inches in Springfield, IL, and 3.35 inches in Wichita, KS. Meanwhile in Florida, Tampa received 1.27 inches of rain (77 percent of normal) from June 1-10, following an April-May total of 0.02 inch (4.23 inches below normal). Allison broke June rainfall records in several locations, including Houston, TX, where the June 1-10 total reached 16.49 inches. Houston experienced their second- and fifth-wettest June days on record, with 8.13 inches on the 8th and 5.33 inches on the 5th. Houston's wettest June day, 10.34 inches on June 26, 1989, was measured during the passage of another Tropical Storm Allison. Nearby Conroe, TX, netted 11.36 inches on Friday, their wettest June day on record. Localized storm totals near Houston exceeded 30 inches, including reported 120-hour (June 4-9) totals of 35.67 inches at Greens Bayou and 32.91 inches at Hunting Bayou. In southern Louisiana, 168-hour (June 4-11) totals reached 28.15 inches in Salt Point, 21.00 inches in Slidell, and 19.31 inches in Baton Rouge. An upper-level disturbance triggered locally heavy showers in Hawaii, especially on Oahu. The Manoa Lyon gauge (near the Manoa River headwaters in southeastern Oahu) recorded a 72-hour (June 3-6) rainfall of 6.00 inches. Elsewhere on Oahu, Honolulu netted 0.99 inch in 24 hours on June 5-6, accounting for more than one-third of their year-to-date total. Meanwhile, a marked warming trend arrived in Alaska, boosting weekly temperatures as much as 6 degrees F above normal. On June 3, Nome's high of 64 degrees F was 15 degrees F above normal, and represented their highest reading since August 13, 2000. National Agricultural Summary June 4 - 10, 2001 Highlights: Heavy and persistent rainfall provided beneficial long-term moisture supplies for rice and sugarcane crops along the western Gulf Coast, but also flooded low-lying areas in eastern Texas and much of Louisiana. By the end of the week, the tropical system had also significantly reduced moisture shortages along the eastern Gulf Coast and interior Southeast. Recently planted row crops quickly emerged across the northern Corn Belt and Great Plains, but cool weather and wet soils slowed crop development and reduced conditions. Heavy rainfall stalled planting in the lower Missouri Valley and hindered planting in interior parts of the Southeast. Rain eased moisture shortages in the northern High Plains, while dry weather aided fieldwork in the Southwest. Corn: Ninety-six percent of the crop was emerged, compared with 99 percent a year ago. Fields quickly emerged across the northern Corn Belt and adjacent areas of the Great Plains. Sixteen percent of the acreage emerged in Minnesota and 15 percent emerged in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and the Dakotas. Fields also rapidly emerged in Colorado. Crop development slowed and conditions declined across most of the Corn Belt due to cold night time temperatures and soggy soils. Above-normal temperatures promoted development in the southern Great Plains, where almost one-half of the Texas crop was at or beyond the silking stage. Winter Wheat: Ninety percent of the acreage was at or beyond the heading stage and 8 percent was harvested. Last year, 95 percent was headed and 16 percent was harvested. On average, 91 percent would be headed and 9 percent would be harvested by this date. Fields rapidly entered the heading stage in the northern States, from the Great Lakes to the Pacific Northwest, despite unseasonably cool weather. More than one-third of the Washington acreage and just less than one-third of the Michigan crop entered the heading stage during the week. In Colorado and Montana, about one-fourth of the fields progressed to the heading stage. About one-fifth of the acreage headed in Nebraska and Oregon. Harvest accelerated in the southern Great Plains, mid-Atlantic Coastal Plains, and California. Oklahoma producers harvested one-fourth of their acreage during the week, and with 30 percent harvested, progress was equal to the 5-year average. Texas growers harvested 17 percent of their crop and were ahead of normal. Harvest progress doubled in California and North Carolina, to one-fifth complete. Soybeans: Eighty-six percent of the acreage was planted, behind last year's 93-percent progress, but slightly ahead of the 84-percent average for this date. Seventy-two percent was emerged, compared with 86 percent a year ago. Planting continued with only scattered rain delays across the northern Corn Belt and Great Plains. Progress was most active in North Dakota. Rain sharply curtailed planting along the lower Missouri River Valley and Mississippi Delta. Progress was hindered most in Kansas and Missouri. Emergence was aided by ample moisture supplies in the western Corn Belt and Great Plains. Emergence advanced 41 percentage points in North Dakota and about one-fourth of the acreage emerged in Minnesota, Nebraska, and South Dakota. Cool weather hindered vegetative development across the Corn Belt and Great Plains. In some areas, excessive soil moisture also contributed to a poor growing environment. Cotton: Ninety-five percent of the crop was planted, and 18 percent was squaring. Planting progress was slightly ahead of last year and the average. Acreage squaring lagged slightly behind last year, but was equal to the 5-year average. Planting was most active in the southern Great Plains, advancing 14 and 10 percentage points in Texas and Oklahoma, respectively. Planting was also active along the southern Atlantic Coastal Plain, progressing 10 percentage points in South Carolina. Above-normal temperatures and mostly beneficial rainfall aided growth in the Southeast and interior parts of the Mississippi Delta, but heavy rainfall and constant cloud cover hindered development along the western Gulf Coast. Cool weather limited development in the Tennessee Valley, while above-normal temperatures aided development in the Southwest. Small grains: Barley and spring wheat emergence, at 94 and 92 percent, respectively, lagged behind last year, but exceeded the average for this date. Much-needed rain aided emergence in Montana, while adequate moisture and abundant sunshine promoted rapid emergence in Minnesota and North Dakota. Five percent of the barley and 1 percent of the spring wheat had reached the heading stage, behind last year and the normal for this date. Development was most advanced in Washington, where nearly one-third of the barley and almost one-fourth of the spring wheat was heading. Spring wheat development lagged well behind normal in South Dakota. The oat crop was 96 percent emerged and 6 percent headed, behind last year's progress, when 99 percent was emerged and 19 percent was headed. Normally, 95 percent would be emerged and 10 percent headed by this date. Below-normal temperatures limited growth in the Corn Belt and Great Plains. Due to early planting progress, development was most advanced in Ohio, where more than one-third of the acreage was headed. Acreage at the heading stage lagged well behind normal in Nebraska and South Dakota. Emergence advanced 12 percentage points in North Dakota. Rice: Two percent of the crop was headed, compared with 4 percent at this time last year and 1 percent normally headed by this date. Cloudy skies limited vegetative growth along the western Gulf Coast, but acreage headed slightly exceeded the average in Louisiana. Heavy, persistent rains provided ample flood water supplies along the Gulf Coast and into parts of the interior Mississippi Delta. Above-normal heat accelerated growth in California. Sorghum: Planting was 78 percent complete, behind last year's 84-percent progress, but ahead of the 75-percent average. Despite scattered rain delays, planting rapidly progressed in the Great Plains, especially in South Dakota, where 30 percent of the acreage was seeded during the week. In Colorado and Oklahoma, planting advanced 20 percentage points. In New Mexico, progress was nearly double the average. Rain prevented planting in Missouri and limited progress in Illinois. Other crops: Peanut planting, at 96 percent complete, was equal to last year and ahead of the average for this date. Three percent of the crop was pegging, slightly behind last year and the average of 5 percent. Planting steadily advanced in the southern Great Plains and neared completion in the Southeast. Development was most advanced in Florida, where 15 percent was pegging. Seventy-five percent of the sunflower acreage was planted, compared with 86 percent planted by this date last year. More than one-fourth of the acreage was planted in Colorado and North Dakota during the week. Progress was only slightly slower in Kansas and South Dakota.
