It's 4:00. All heaters on in the greenhouse, but Regina is 5 degrees so out in Wascana flats s/b 2 to 3. Hang in there for another hour baby. Long live the lentil!

[SASKFARMER3]

Frost advisory just ended!

Looks like minus temperatures are centered on Manitoba/Sask border in about central Sask and extending in fairly wide swath through Manitoba to the south east. Commonly minus two's or so reported by Weatherbug stations. The frost moved eastward last night and it froze in many places, no denying that.


Even saw a couple places in SE Sask that are just now at -2 degrees Celcius

Plus 2 @ 4:30. Bit of dew on the vehicles, 89% RH. My beaten canola field receives a stay of execution but recovery will be slow and painful.

Dropping another degree or so into the Manitoba region (now all the way to practically Winnipeg) and south right to the US border. Appears centered around Yorkton and to south east in a significant area at least size of some "provinces"

Light frost on vehicles, even where weather stations are showing hovering just above the freezing mark. "Still" winds and usually coldest just as day breaks

Went from -1.1 at 5 am to -4.6 at 6 am! What the hell!

[furrowtickler]

That's what we seen here yesterday some areas dropped from -1 to -3 to -5 around 5:30 , just after sun rise . Seen it before , can be frustrating , but there was a steady -8 reported in the Glenbush to Mayfair area yesterday morning - not much crop checking to be done there now

[HappyFarmer]

Do I bother till wait till monday? It's a shame. I haven't had canola come up so nice in a while.

[furrowtickler]

Yes , I would wait. how much stubble where your canola is ?
Some canola fields here not touched much some fields are fried.
But I would also line up seed asap just in case and or matador to keep bug pressure off if you leave it.
