Compared to last week: A winter storm moved in over the weekend dropping temps into the teens and 20's and Monday dropped sleet across parts of the state with more to come. Slaughter bulls not enough receipts to set a trend. Slaughter cows sold 1.00 to 2.00 higher. Demand was high. Quality was below average.
