Kansas Farm Bureau president Joe Newland said that tariffs from President Donald Trump's trade war will hurt farmers, but he has hope for the future.

A strengthening storm system will move across the country this week, bringing blizzard conditions to the Heartland and tornadoes and damaging winds to the South.

The tariffs could have far-reaching impacts, touching everything from grocery prices to the finances of farmers and construction costs.
