5"! Wow. Good luck there. Hope it stops soon. Looks like Yorkton is getting their fair share as well

That's nothing to worry about, try that much times 8 or 9, and besides it could be a lot worse it could be dry!

Just north of Estevan twenty miles only half inch and west twenty miles basically 0. Weird how storms go.

Exactly! I don't know why anyone could complain. Rain makes grain in an exponential fashion...

Rain makes mud and mud makes a dud of a crop.
Dry is way better than the shit happening now.
Just got drews forcast and we are in the Bulls Eye of storm.
Mud is a Dud!

Sorry for that, man!


Hopefully it isn't overly much... things can still change. Neither of us needs it.

This "big crop " is slip sliding away in a hurry ! the leaches will start to be getting nervous. some will have to start buying out one sided contracts soon

[SASKFARMER3]

Lentils will have issues. number one contracts will quickly become a Special #3 for 10 to 15 cents a lb. or less.
Peas go flat with rain and water and canola is not good. oh yea lodged flat wheat great to harvest been there before it sucks.

Would someone be willing to put up what lerner was saying about this system. I was thinking today that I need to maybe invest in some weather model forecasting since weather is 99% of our business!!
