Rain forecast for central/eastern AB

[farmaholic]

Silverback. Map shows better south of Calgary than north. "Isolated" showers probably are just localized. Maps may be a generalized view. I cant verify their accuracy but they would be pretty accurate for where I live!

There is the odd "young guy or some who pay for agronomic advice" who are spraying a bit here, what for? Doing a bit of side by side comparison? Haven't figured out you can't spend your way out of a wreck? Following recommondations from people
who don't pay your bills? I refuse to spend another nickel unnecessarily on this crop. Hope to get most of my expenses back(absolutely in denial) let alone incurr more!!!!

Some of our crop has average potential due to subsoil moisture reserves. We will likely spray the good canola and the pedigree seed fields. Light rain now - wasn't sure if we were going to see any for the rest of the year.

I didn't know you were first nation.

Not that there is anything wrong with that.

I was under those dark clouds in the radar 2 different times last night. Earning out and all. Even had some yellow over the farm on the radar. All added up to 1/10. I guess it's better then wind. As to fungicides we have some decent disease levels in the barley for how dry it is. We have been spraying. Did some every other passes in some fields to see that I did throw my money away.

We flew over huge billowing water-laden clouds
last night near midnight ( flight Calgary to Regina). We thought finally our rain order had arrived, but no, a sprinkling enough to wet the ground, that's all that fell. With all the heavy cloud, colourful radar and satellite, no way. Well, the air is fresh for the moment.

Does a tenth help at all?

That's an INSULT! Drew says NO rain in foreseeable future, Suffer All... he says it is so dry nothing to form rain clouds... screwed is appropriate description, like that hopper?
