Boys and girls, in my humble opinion, we are
In a drougt disaster, or a multi cause diaster
I stopped everything yesterday to take an
Overview...it was not good.,.wheat small, some
Of it, maybe a 70% stand...other is bigger but
Some turning blue, some brown, no nice
Bright green.
Pastures...horrible...little if any grass, I have 3 plus
Ponds that are bone dry. I drove to the deepest
Part of all of them which would be 8 to 12 feet.
All our hay is sold out. Fellows looking for
Something cheap
Area salebarn having sale, over 1000 cows, 800 piggy
Heifers, and 90 bulls
Another sale barn had similar but a bit smaller
Sale last week.
Guys don't know what to do, only money they
Made was with cattle last year....and now
They don't know if they can hold onto them
Folks things are bad
Oh... blizzard tonight just west of us
Lows in the upper teens for the next couple
Days, that will make livestock sick and not
Doing crops any favors
Ok has some bad fires in panhandle....local emergency Management has shut down all
Open flames in many county's, including BBQs
And fire pits.
7 day noaa precipitation models show up to
0.25 inch.....that will not dampen the grass
