No question to me that big enough bodies of water, and even slight topographical changes affect weather. My wife and I always talk about what we call “the valley phenomenon”. More times than not when we head to Regina, there is a distinct cloud line at ft Quappelle.

The quill lakes affect us. Our slightly higher (100 feet) topography here than the country to the south and west seems to cause more rain on us. It’s interesting that an overall flat place, can have such diverse weather and such obvious weather causing physical features, no matter how small they may be.

Was complimented on a 1/2 section of canola we have. “Boy it looks good”. Ya it looks good alright......

I said the crop was cosmetic in early June. Growth is there, Moisture is there, just couldn’t recover from early frosts or the heat wave.

To be clear that is a canola crop not mustard, right?

Pods look like mustard...should be shrink wrapping the seeds to finish up.


just some sarcasm...not meant to offend although some agencies wouldn't know.

The vast amount of canola that looks ok and not completely dried up already looks exactly like that Herc.
I still don’t think the trade understands how much damage is out there .
Everything I seen that looks ok has 40-70 % blanks and aborted pods .

Using SF3's estimator I come up with 6-8bu/ac for durum, and personally I think that's generous.

Short tour this am.
Amazing to see after a week of smoke and 2 days of mist with little measurable moisture.
Later canola full bright yellow, earlier canola re yellowing. Even thin areas yellowing up. Even saw a later pea crop flowering.
We will see how many bushels it can pull from the B horizon. Amazing to watch. Believe it or not some getting late LoL.

SE Sask is the sweet spot. Qu'Appelle valley is the dividing line. Go from the USA border to Regina then the valley and turn toward Manitoba that area is getting rain.

Just 10 miles north of the big hole in the ground 1/10. Or no rain. You can smell it every day hear the thunder and look at the clear sky above you as it won't cross the valley.

Camping Crooked Lake, Watched radar yesterday, saw exactly that, the rain in valley and S. Rain was training in a line along valley. Not a lot, 1/2 INCH
