Total rain fall from last wed to sun night?

[HFL]

We had 3 to 4 tenths across our farm from Thursday to Sunday. Now the forecast is for temps in the 30s by next weekend. That will be pretty hard on the crops.

Guess its hail insurance time. First week in July can be bad, then exhibition week.

sumdumguy;

cumulative rainfall over the last week:

Sunday, .12 inches
5 days ago, .17 inches
7 days ago, .21 inches

Not to sound ungrateful, but a hair over 2 tenths in a week is hardly a drought breaker here. It is the condition of my canola I am the most concerned about. Short and bolting and can't reach the fertilizer in the midrow. Chlorosis in some patches and some cupping and purple plants, stressed and deficient. ****!

Lets hope those that need get and those that got are grateful.

I can do better than that.

3 tenths since may 1st. Some guys a few miles south even less.

I don't have a rain gauge.

But it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see crops are ****ed here. Or will be after this week.

This year I appear to be having as much luck with the thundershower lottery as the Lotto Max with all it's MaxMillions.

Ok.

Let's simplify this.

Who will use a combine this year?

Pretty sure at this point I won't be.

[freewheat]

Sorry to hear guys. Sorry to hear.

[HFL]

Pretty sure we will use our combines. But nowhere near to their capacity. We'll just be saving A.F.S.C. Money.

farmaholic, I was sure those blue clouds in the east last night would get all of eastern Sask. This week for sure. Make sure your eaves troughs are down. Bucket, you too. Did you guys see the wicked system this morning around Fargo? Man, it was about the meanest, purple-maroon Boora I ever saw, and the size of it! If that comes to Sask, we will all need boats.
