Thanks tallpine!


Temps are even cooler today(from the hot to very warm week 2 maps late last week that keep getting cooler).

This is even more bearish natural gas.

Also bearish corn and beans with decent chances of rain too. 

KC wheat could put in a reversal higher today if we close up on the day and potentially mark the June preharvest lows.
