SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Way wetter here than last fall, even after a reasonably dry July to Sept. The big water is getting bigger. 1.5 inches since Sept and it's MUD! Now SNOW to destroy the gravel roads! What a mess! It better be drier than normal for most of us or 2015 is another crap year. Some where important better have a short crop or prices will be even lower and all farmers, except the US, will have bigger negative returns.

Well said! Yes missing the boom is probably the biggest thing that pisses me the most! Also I don't know one farmer living with years, years of mud doesn't think every spring will this be the year we get back to normal! Then a foot of wet snow and your two weeks behind. Then 8 to foot rain farm progress show! You know it's back!
So no I don't wish a drought on any one but last time I checked the big one in the thirtys and the 80s only lasted 7 years!

I wonder if reduced tillage is the reason for the increased precip. Almost all of the great plains has changed tillage practices. That's a lot of black dirt that doesn't get as warm.
Likely this point has been made by many and I'm just not aware of it.

Agree with fjlip we here are much wetter than last fall. Not even sure if can pick the rocks anymore that we have flagged with the outback gps From harrow and spraying. Time will tell.

The other thing she did yesterday to me was while checking the bin to fill i opened the check hole at the top and a damn mouse jumped in my face,not so ha,ha when your 30ft in the air.

Glad you didn't fall Cotton. You must have had your wits about you to keep on hangin on. Could have been disastrous.

Meanwhile out on the western fringe we are going into winter with likely the lowest groundwater levels since settlement @1902.
Incredibly dry.
