hours below 24f last night in Kansas

[helmsdale]

Last night got chilly for quite a while...



We ain't the only ones struggling. Drought impacting significant portions of the plains:



New Rain Guage... I can sympathize with this last year



Extreme Winds in southern Kansas mean blowing dust advisories:



Extreme Fire risk in southern plains.



I would imagine with the back to back snow storms, the drought situation should lessen in North and South Dakota, but they are SIGNIFICANTLY behind average. We may very well be seeding here in the Special Areas before they are.

Good post helm

So the cold and frost impact some of the better areas in Nebraska and Kansas, can’t be good.

How can they have fog in the morning and blowing dust in the afternoon? Never would that happen here.

I will be setting up rain guages all summer to monitor crops.

Here it seems the wind is wreaking havoc with the system from advancing over us....please not a repeat of last year.

Maybe it Will make it yet.

Haven't lost a crop in April yet... Typically this area will give you hope until calgary stampede week. Get an inch during stampede and you get a crop. Miss it, and you're picking shit with the chickens.
