Too light an offering today to compare to last week and develop an accurate price trend, higher undertones noted on steers. Good to very good demand for this light offering including quite a few loads. Varied flesh today, from light to moderate plus. Cattle light and green enough for grass saw very good demand. Quite a few cancellations today due to weather. North Dakota and Montana are seeing blizzard conditions and large snowfalls and the whole area is seeing high winds. Market mostly active with a few less buyers and consignors attending today due to weather. A larger sale expected next Wednesday, April 20.
