    Yeah that's a bitch. I'll be held up about 4 months until I can get the last of my wheat. Laying under a blanket of snow 'til then.

      When it's that hot you shouldn't be held up long?

              A week or two ago it was in the 40s.
              Is it all dead ripe now? Burnt with green in it? Must be damp air now for a few mills to shut down.
              What moisture you bin at?
              What's a safe dry for that temp?
              We would want to air that some here.
              Convection spoilage on cool down and bugs. How much air storage if any?
              I've combined in Kansas at high temps but it went to the terminal. Most of yours goes there too, I guess.

                Yep yep yep

                13.5% and under but usually 10 to 12 is moisture
                Bugs a issues yes
                And yes 75% of grain is sold at harvest and over to end users mills o elevators or container exporters

                  Sounds like ideal harvest conditions to me.

                  Just let your neighbors know that I had precipitation every single day in September, all but three in October( non consecutive), and last I checked, all but 4 days in November, and we still managed to get some harvesting done. And too often that precipitation was white, which takes much longer to get rid of.
