15 for a high here next week end.

We haven't had any real rain here but we do get fairly regular showerers.
Hopefully poor weather for grasshoppers.
Leave the hiefers a few more green shoots to nibble.

Few starting to harvest here now.

I'm looking forward to 20 rather than 30. Just because the crop is cooked doesn't mean I have to be.

Although... Tue 17 High 17c Low 5C does make one wonder... will help cool our grain going into the bin... 40C at 12% peas that need to be cooled down to 10C to condition immature seeds end up at 9% moisture?

It sure will be a blessing to have cooler weather!!! Still some leaves left on later Canola... so it can finish filling!
P. S. Got down to 3c

Cheers

I've been looking closer at some of my veryd good looking canola.
Just sickening how many blanks there are within. Entire branches with nothing but clusters of blanks. Looks good from the road though.

Pods I crack have large seeds. Enough blanks but it isn’t horrible. Aside from a hailed out field yield will be off 25%. Everything together will be 60% of average. More worried about my cereals. They look tough.

Putting Mustard on air... even after sitting on an untarped truck all night a blended sample was still 98*f

Honest to goodness we need a rain, but rain mid august through september would be the ultimate insult upon injury to this crop!

We have a low of +3 for Tuesday night. It seems our annual 6 week frost free season is over already.
