Not good when you have to go out and work in that. Seems early for that much snow? What are your temps? Central Ohio had freezing rain yesterday morning, which is mostly still on everything. Highs the last few days in the 30's and same for today. About an inch of snow over night last night too. Hope we all get some better weather. The weather guy from Columbus, Ohio said yesterday that normal highs for us for now are in the 50's. I don't think we've had Indian Summer yet either.

| Ours is already melting but not before we received 9" of the stuff. Storm backed up against a cold front from the SE, then settled into IL and rotated CCW pushing MORE moisture into the sweep and MORE snow on us. School called yesterday and today, first Nov Snow Days anyone could remember for our district. |

Remember this?  https://youtu.be/UBLxfvACQhE" rel="nofollow - - https://youtu.be/UBLxfvACQhE Sleigh bells ring and I'm listening, But I'm turning and twisting. 'Cause I'm itching up here, And I'm scratching down there, I'm walking in my winter underwear. Now, the front is all battered, And the back is is all tattered, But, when I'm cold to the core, I walk through the "trap door", And up into my winter underwear. Vell, I don't care if it rains or snows or freezes. I yam so warm I yust don't give a hoot. I put on all the stockings I can locate, And I wear two pair of trousers with my suit. But then I start to perspire And then it sets me on fire. 'Cause I'm itching up here, And I'm scratching down there, I'm walking in my winter underwear. Vinter snow is white and glistening, But I'm turning and twisting. I gotta scratch a little here, I gotta scratch a little there. I'm walking in my winter underwear. I put my bathing suit away in moth balls, And now I've got to adapt to snow balls. Then I can't scratch my back; I throw myself all aback. I'm walking in my winter underwear. Through rain and snow and ice I do not worry. The winter come, I yust don't give a hoot. My coat and hat and earmuffs keep my cozy And I wear two pair of trousers with my suit. But then to cope to other clothing, Vell, the thing that I am loading, Is when my face turn blue, And contortions I go through, Walking in my winter underwear. They're from Sears-Rooobuuuck....

Dad once said that there is an indian summer every year and it suppose to be after a hard freeze... and Indian summer may only last for a very brief time, but it will happen... even if it is just for a few minutes... I never did see any hint of the hazy warm day with cobwebs floating in the air and cobwebs on the ground everywhere....not in septemburr, Octoburr, nor in novemburr. and don't think it was in august or july... But maybe back in the first part of june. I do remember thinkin that it sure was the wrong time of the year for that to be happening.... and we had Lilacs starting to bloom on October 6th... at least three others commented on that... So it appears that nature is out of whack with nature....  ------------- He who says there is no evil has already deceived himself The truth is the truth, sugar coated or not.

Reminds me of a news cast from MANY years ago,,,,,,,,,,was a gal on the (I THINK) Mabel, MN news at noon. She gives the stories for the day and then announces that Chet (Name changed to protect the innocent) is standing by with the weather. He says; "More snow in the forecast",,, She jumps in and asks him first thing,,,,,,,"Where's that six inches you promised me last night?" (laughter in the background and then,,,,,,,cut away to commercial)... ------------- "Allis-Express" 19?? WC / 1941 C / 1952 CA / 1956 WD45 / 1957 WD45 / 1958 D-17 |

No, I am slower than the big green farmers. Wyatt is actually the man in charge of the harvest. He got one semi load done, and the moisture was 18.2. Took it straight to the ethanol plant. 18 is kind of there cutoff point, but they did take that load. Might have helped that Wyatt knows the guy in the scale house quite well. It hasn't done anything but rain and snow since, so I don't think the moisture has dropped. Kind of have a precarious situation, too, with the two fields he started on. Every bushel off of these two fields (100 acres) has to be ferried out in the grain cart through a creek crossing that we can't take the semi through. Anyhow, thanks to some pretty white stuff, it's been a struggle with even the tractor and grain cart. Only 400 bushel cart with the 8070 FWA on it, and it spins out coming up out of this creek crossing. He ended up only putting one dump at a time on the cart to even make it work. But now with 6 inches of new snow, it'll open up a whole new can of worms. He had hauled a couple loads of scoria (the red rock around here that we surface county roads with) onto it, and that helped, but now that is all covered up again too. And the "up and out" side of the creek crossing is on the south side, thus a north facing slope, so it doesn't get a direct hit of sunlight to thaw it out. We are thinking about putting the 8550 onto the cart, but I don't think that'll be any better. Maybe a little less snow would be the answer. Darrel |

Sounds like good times Darrel.  Much the same story here. Struggling to get my beans done. I actually took my corn off first, even though the moisture was over 20. That's what my dryer is for! Hahaha....Beans behaved strangely this year in maturity, hung onto leaves late, stayed green, so I took the corn off. Glad I did, but still struggling in the snow to finish beans. Getting close....

| We got 18 inches of snow back on the 10 of October. It took three weeks of our Indian summer to dry out enough to to start harvesting again. Most guys got beans and corn off but still many beans and almost all the sunflowers left.sunflowers can be harvested after solid freeze up you just can't till after.we still have pintos and soys in the field. They're goners and will make spring tilling tougher. |

| True store about an old boy in Jackson Hole Wy, old batchlor had a cabin, got snowed in all winter. Snow melted in the spring. Now this old boy had all the modern convinces. When they brought in electricity, he had them set his pole down by the crick. He bought himself a Matag wringer washer and set it by the pole. Didn't need electricity in the cabin. Now remember this old boy had been snow'd in all winter. He took off his winter long johns, took a much needed bath, tossed the long johns in the washer. Then he decided he was thirsty and lonly, headed to town for a cool 1. 1 lead to a few dozen or more over a three day period. When he did remember to go home, there was that Matage wringer washer churning away. When he walked down there to get his winter long johns, all he had was a big ol handful of strings. I hope you guys get doug out and not find yourself in this old boys circumstance. |

Got up to the low 60's again today, been in the 50's & 60's the last few days but the snow we got on Saturday night isn't melting as fast as I had hoped. May be able to cut the last field of grass hay tomorrow. Another couple storms on their way for the weekend but only 30% chance of snow and 40's for Sat and Sun then warmer next week, might just get er done before December! A lot of the corn is still standing around here, just too wet and we don't have driers like you guys in the mid west. ------------- "If at first you don't succeed, get a bigger hammer" Allis Express participant |

This is one of those years that is going to go down in history for the farmer....... TOO wet in the spring. It wouldn't quit raining. When it did, it didn't last for long, it started in with a vengeance. ALL spring and summer it rained...When fall was supposed to get here, according to the calendar, we went into the deep freeze and we haven't come out of it yet. Now winter is knockin on the door and it's cold as I've ever seen this early in the year. Normally Dec or January for this cold. Couldn't get into the fields to plant, couldn't cut hay and now you can't get what crops you have in.....BAD year for farmers,,,,,,again. ------------- "Allis-Express" 19??
