Alert Details

The risk of corn earworm migration is predicted to remain in the Low category for the next five days. Rather weak, stagnant flow is expected to persist across much of the corn-growing region through the period and should limit any opportunity for stronger southerly wind flow from mid-south and southern source regions in the Midwest and Plains. Low risks are primarily present across the Plains and western Midwest (west of I-35 and south of US 12) through the period but do expand eastward into portions of southern Wisconsin and Illinois overnight tonight into Tuesday morning as well.
