    Manitoba's Screwed for now...

    Heavy rain in the western half of the province right now... puddles in most fields already.

    Drove into Dauphin down Hiway 20 (about 15 miles east of my farm)... There's lakes in the fields, soil erosion to the rock, and mud. With this rain 15cm of snow, no seeding there, or in fact Ste. Rose till June 1.

    We'll be lucky to get going May 15 now.

      Absolutely evil weather. If that happens here we would never seed in 2011.

                Seed bastird works the best in the yard looking at
                it. In the yard it won't be plugged with straw and
                making piles all over.

                    Drew called this about a week ago, they just were not sure where it would hit. I seen it about the 23rd - "rain event". Right to the day when no Canadian forcast seen this until two days ago. I hope Drew is wrong for the rest of spring - anyone see his latest forcast? For some it may not matter.
