Turn the radio off.
Forecasts lose %50 probability every 12 hrs at least.
Try and explain to city friends Mother Nature doesnt have any feelings.
Send the bill to Suzuki.

Coastal like weather here tonight. Wettttt.

Sawfly, I so agree. I'm so angry some days when they have David Phillips on the radio, he sounds so smug and smarmy. He doesn't have a clue and couldn't give two shits about the consequences of their forecasts, yet us as farmers, are making decisions worth tens of thousands of dollars day after day in the spring and fall, betting they're going to get it right this time. There are never any consequences for them, no, they just keep going to work day after day for EC and collecting their government pay cheque.

What about the 134 mil that Harper gave so we would get more accurate forcasting? Kind of a joke.

NEVER TRUST A FORECAST. ANYONES. To many times they're wrong.

Agree with border bloke. David Phillips is the kiss of death with his forecasts. Whatever he says you can pretty well bet it will be opposite but no consequence. Totally unanswerable and he comes off sounding so confident year after year even though the hot dry summer and awesome harvest weather he predicts have never materialized.

Hope it stays windy all night, maybe we'll stay on the outside of the front. Right now it is tracking north.

got to 30% left to go then it rained and rained and rained. Ok spit first then the shit hit. Its building across the valley and today looks to be a bust.

Idaho sent us this present. Idaho lows never last five days, that's the good news.

Farmaholic, if you never trust the forecast you must have a lot of tough and damp grain, no?

Maybe a few drops fell. Flax will never be ready anyhow though.
After today can probably say goodbye to the sun till Thurs aft or Friday. It will have a lot of drying to do when it comes back.

Well pissing here on and off since 5am this morning. Dirt roads near undriveable. Just needed one more day to finish up but thats how the cookie crumbles.

Things are going backwards fast for you Saskfarmer.

Yesterday, Oct 1, 11:53, you quoted, " should get to 20 left tonight.

Today, October 2, you quote, " got to 30% left to go then it rained and rained..."

Does indicate that I read your drizzle, or rain. LOL
