Reports still expected despite gov't shutdown

( )

Due to a winter storm, the Office of Personnel Management declared today a snow day for federal government offices in Washington, meaning federal offices are closed to all but essential personnel. In the past, USDA has still released weekly export inspections data when offices are closed. The monthly reports from USDA — Grain Crushings, Fats & Oils and Cotton System — are expected to be released as scheduled, according to the National Agricultural Statistics Service. The Federal Reserve has said that they plan to issue all daily postings as scheduled.
