Not much happening for a few days now ...rain last night...

RANT ALERT.....why is it that we have spent billions on climate change analysis based on daily weather reports and other things to look 50 years into the future when a 3 day or 3 hour forecast isn't or can't be right??????

There were 100% chances in May for rain that never materialized and now a 30 percent chance turns into 100% 2 or 3 tenth downpour at 9pm....


For the enviro whacks about climate change....get more accurate forecast before you start telling me that the world is going to end in 12 years...or there is a climate emergency...

Because right now farmers have a crop emergency that is being completely ignored...

Wow, is the forecast ugly for here!

Annoying factoid.....

Weather is enough of a harvest impediment this year, then throw in an annoying small breakdown!

Squeeze harvest in in between the breaks from the crap weather and hope like hell there is no machinery breakdowns during those opportunities. It is so important on one combine farms. I usually look over the combine well in harvest down time but there is just some things you can't see or miss or impossible to predict.

Annoying is cheap and poor engineering. And having the problem being fixed or rectified with the same shit that failed.

Boy you called my harvest exactly right. Rear tire on 9600 goes out, wait a day to get it in. Some shaft under the cab looks like its losing a bearing, lose a day and JD service visit. Then fire in the guts in the 9600. Takes us out for 3 days just before the big rain.

Add in a lot of misty mornings and big dew and night time humidity and the harvestable hours have been really cut.

I guess you can describe breakdowns as annoying and small.
The engineering is cheap but the bill to fix it sure isn't.
Racking up a lot of points on the credit card

This is the weather of global cooling. Gonna get worse Furrow. U just gotta except that it’s climate change and u gotta pay to fix it. U see how it’s working so far. They just haven’t food the thermostat for the sun yet so pay more please!

Yorkton area. 20% done maybe a little better. Peas were ok, Wheat ok, canola a bit better than expected so far but a looooooooong way to go.

Maybe they will take sprouted or frozen grains instead of carbon tax and seed tax .
Yup everyone else needs more ***in money ....
