Are we headed for a dry spring/summer?

[GALAXIE500]

Hello all. Just wondering if anybody has heard what the long term forecasts are for moisture this winter. Where we live (SW Sask.) we basically have no snow aand have had lots of wind since before Christmas. I know there is lots of time left for winter, but I am starting to really wonder what spring will offer us!

Too early to tell. We have been dry at
this time of the year before but have had
it turn around yet. Although, we haven't
had a dry year for a while now so the odds
may favour one now.

I sure as hell hope so!

Seeding in the first week of May would be nice for a change. Dry soil would be awesome for a change. A return to history is long overdue. This winter is awesome to behold.

Gag discussions! Who cares bout the North

Breadwinner, you should be outside fishing

one to burb. Just need an address. Central
Winnipeg, burb?

Larry Weber, Weber Commodities provided the provincial stubble subsoil moisture map in his daily newsletter if you want to know what the conditions are in your area.

Yous guys/gals should stick your pointy
tiny weiny little heads, up where the sun
don't shine. Just like your failed
ostrich framer Gag minister, whose still
in hidin, spendin time wit his family me
guesses. Guess global warming isn't fer
yous folks eh? Cousin its science based,
not BS based........

If the weather keeps it up ice fishing might get a bit scary. Almost no snow left here, kids enjoying every minute of it.

Here is my spring weather order...

A little dry during seeding.

Some nice regular rainfall when needed by the crops for high yields.

Nice dry weather during harvest.

This the opposite from the miserable weather we had to deal with this year.

No snow in southern Alberta. Plenty of wind and
a couple of fires today. Hopefully things will
improve by spring.

Dumb question but do you guys dry sow cereals
wait for them to emerge then get weeds later or
always wait for weeds and sow into clean
ground?
So different than aust the saying here is were
there's mud there's money it's just the opposite it
seems on the orators a tad on the dry side
doesn't seem to bother you to much

[malleefarmer]

Typho sorry but you got the idea of the post.

When does it get critical April may?

Here we have had a decile 3 for our growing
season but produced best yells ever but we had
7 inches of rain last harvest which got the crops
through

malle,
Seeding ends about June 1, sooo near
perfect conditions are rain on the
Victoria Weekend May 24.

We do have an old saying:
'Seed in the dust... and your bins will
bust'!!

Put more hours on tractor plowing snow
last year, than seeding... so we are
frozen up with no moisture loss to start
till April.

The guys are just getting itchy feet for
spring to come!

Cheers!
