If bins are empty for harvest ?

We are on the precipice on having the best crop in a decade or the worst in 2 decades. Honestly our crops look really good, but we are surviving on soil moisture, and small timely rains(2 1/2" since the snow left). If we get an inch in the next ten days we'd be golden, if we don't get any rain we are going to be going backwards fast. No rain in any forecast for the next two weeks, lets hope their forecasts are as accurate as always. We certainly don't have enough soil moisture to take us through grain fill.

Good to hear wheatking ,

crops around here are going backwards fast, hay is really getting hammered from the heat and no subsoil...it is forecasting the crop story.

If the latest ECMWF model is correct, it'll be all over by the end of next week.

At least for us, we have 90*+ for saturday through thursday, and 3 days exceeding 100f.

Even with subsoil moisture that seriously clips the top end. If you're living on the rain we've had so far this season that crop is going to want to crawl back into the ground.

Pacific NW is going to get absolutely hammered with this heat wave it looks like... Temperatures exceeding 110 for multiple days in a row. The Palouse Hills area has been struggling, it'll likely be game over.

Northern US plains also expected to be HOT. That likely seals the fate for US HRSW.

Obviously there is time for models to change, but I don't like what I see!
