Radar....

Last year every little whiff of a cloud just poured. This year the systems aren't tracking straight NE of Helena, they are getting pushed back down by the Wicked Witch of the North. Hopefully tomorrow shows 100% humidity, that should do it. 😉

So far, this rain event is turning out to be dry like all the others this spring. The wind keeps blowing.
Rain makes grain.

Looks like it is fading here too. Minni wheat starting to take notice finally.

interesting minny wheat move relative to cash....risingCan$, improving basis in rising futures market....Perhaps more than paper shortcovering??...smells like real demand also paying attention?
Thots?

Started raining here with some thunder at 10pm. Don't want to be greedy but man we could use it already. Never seen water disappear as quick as these recent doses. Been out and about the last few days from Moosomin to Roseau River, SE of Winnipeg today and it's all looking like it could use a drink.

Looks like the system in Manitoba will get some circulation going in Sask.
Wind is going to have to get in the north.

MBdog today's price jump in MW means this is for real. Didn't think it would do it. Traders thinking forecast rains will be light?
Up another dime tonight.

biglentil, don't hold your breath. I think all we are going to get is wrap around leftovers, subsiduary prizes, not the big rain lotto win! Unless that cell that is hitting Grassy tracks east, we could always hope. Although its not over yet, I don't have a good feeling for this again...too much ****ing wind! God I hate wind, I can't say it enough.

Oops kinda reiterated what 101 said except with more wind(noise).

[farmaholic]

Can you imagine if it didn't matter!

[farming101]

Leftovers are okay. I'll take 'em.
Don't need a whole lot now but a half inch would really make things better.
Missing this altogether would not be good.

[farmaholic]

Thankfully I'm wrong again..... we get to eat from the banquet table and hopefully have a chance at some leftovers too.

Nice sound to be woken up by when you need it.

101...i would never use the term for real going into end of quarter...but I would say futures and cash price action is perhaps acting somewhat rationally for now, given the real risks. Time will tell as always.
