    This Stagnant H sitting in Sk has to move E or it will never rain. DEAD calm days and nights are the indication of eye of the High.

      Lots of thunder and lightning and boiling black clouds past just barely north of us. I'd rather get no rain than the Frozen kind of rain wish that type of storm likes to drop.

            Sorry misclick on the like.

            Drove from Saskatoon to Regina. Crops look desiccated nearly the whole way but no chem was involved. Its a shocking site to see for the end of July. The only green I saw was kochia. This crop is going to come in way under market expectation imo. Bins are locked.

              Think you can drive almost anywhere and see the same. Canola flowers are disappearing fast and peas and barley are turning in west country. Not sure about further north. But talked to a guy from Grand Prairie that said it won't be long.

                Some of this late canola appears to have taken a beating in the last 2 weeks. Got into flower for about 10d and then hit with 4 days 32C and wind, not much soil reserve and now you can see right into the canopy, flowers thinning.

                Nows its going to get another 4 days of the same and no rain in sight.

                  All the canola here is taking a beating. Early late , No subsoil, heat, grasshoppers, heat , not enough substantial rain for the crops that had as near a perfect start as a farmer could wish for.

                    Crops north of lacombe thru to barrhead area are pretty a ok. Some moisture stress starting to show up now. Just north of Edmonton i think we are looking at some solid numbers. Canola been blooming since Canada day and not finished. Unless we get some serious wind and warmth may * not even joking* be looking for a set of tracks for combine.
                    Have been shooting bottle rockets at rain clouds trying to shoo them off towards you fellas anywhere south and east of us......
