Compared to last week: All classes of steers and heifers traded 2.00 to 4.00 higher. Trading activity was active on good buyer demand. Quality was mostly plain to attractive, with the majority of the supply consisting of load lots of yearlings straight off the wheat. Slaughter cows and bulls traded 2.00 to 3.00 higher. High winds moved across the region on Friday and have returned today. Sustained winds ranged from 30 to 60 mph, with gusts reaching over 80 mph. A few fires broke out throughout the Panhandle and blowing dust limited visibility causing interstates and highways to shutdown due to multicar pileups. No rain is in the forecast, but the it is much needed.
