I’m not impressed. Was thinking this morning that I’m not usually this cold at -30. Then I looked at the temperature 🙈

Well out checking cows this morning, it is a balmy -20(-28 with the wind chill), I feel very fortunate that there are no new calves on the ground this am. We got lucky and only got 2 inches of snow on Monday. How is everyone else doing on April fools day? How is the snow pack in your area? Still over a foot deep here in undisturbed areas.

Sounds like its gonna be cold the next few nights. 14 day forecast doesnt look good for getting any combining done in April. I checked cows 3 times over night and still got fooled and missed 2 calves. Both alive and will be fine but gonna have short ears!

Big shout out 👍👍 to you guys calving right now in this cold . The time and effort you guys do goes unnoticed a lot .
As SHTF around the world , farmers will still do what needs to be done .....

C02 tax working, and soon will make us COLDER yet! Are you Climate Radicals happy? All who voted to get f*cked over by socialists must be clapping.

Four inches of snow yesterday, -20C this morning. Virtually no melting so far, at least two feet of snow and six feet on the fence lines.



Fourth try at putting the pic right side up, I give up.

We went from +15 C on Sunday to -12 C this morning, no snow. Spring in Saskatchewan.

Vegreville set a new low temp record last night in the -25 range beating the previous low from 2018. Global warming my azz. Unfortunately records at this location only go back to 1981 so it is difficult to compare to other cold periods like the early 50's.

thats just weather FFS, chuck said, but that one warm day in antarctica , well that was evidence of global warming

-25 here this morning. Had one valve in the corral but he walked into the barn. We’re 3/4 done calving and considering backing heifers a week earlier for next season. I’m not running near the numbers as before so facilities are adequate to handle early calving. We’ve tried April calving and had more problems with mud and scours and other stupid things. My opinion is start February or May. April is a poor month here.

Somebody on here posted a weather service (it could have been Drew but not sure) that predicted a cold and snowy March back in early Feb. Well they were right. What are they predicting for the summer?
