This Weeks Weather

Heard a rumour the coming week was suppose to heat up, didn’t want to look but curiosity got the best of me. Yup, it’s coming!! Starting Tuesday it will be a comfy 31, then the heat wave will kick in after that reaching 34-35.
Local off sale is already sold out the most popular brands already due to what’s coming.
For some real encouraging news have a read what Lerner put out for the long, long range weather for fall and winter.
SK3 you won’t need to head south it will be warm here minus the beaches. LOL

I'm hoping that heat forecast gets reduced a bit, it doesn't need to be that hot. On the bright side, we should get the peas finished in that weather.

You might need to the peas on ice to keep them cool. 😁

Aeration....Don't stick your head in the top of the bin the first day you run the fans...that hot humid air will drown you.

I'm pinning my hopes on the fact that the forecasts have been wrong here so far all summer. There has been significant rain in the forecast at various times, and it never materializes. So maybe they can be wrong about this too?

They are never wrong about heat, and always right about wind.

There will be a lot of peas sprayed off this week .
Lots of second growth in early seeded wheat crops in areas, not going to be fun to deal with at all .

Forecast for here has thurs, fri, sat right around 100f, with tues, and wed at 90+. Anything still green is going to get roasted. Overnight lows of 70+ on two of the days wont allow for much in the way of recovery. Think i'll keep the diquat in the dealers chem shed. Mother nature looks like it'll take care of the dessicating this year.

So how much harm can still be done by more hot dry weather in your area? Are the driest areas beyond help or harm by now?

Here, my later canola is still in full bloom, would have been perfect time to get some cool and rain, not 32 and dry. Earlier is getting less yellow by the day. Cereals I think the verdict is mostly in already. Anyone hoping for second cut will be disappointed with this, looked promising, but now flowering at 6" tall. In my short life it seemed that we always get rain at some point, and spreading the risk around pays off somewhere. This appears not to be one of those years(unless you believe the forecast...)
