Very little has changed during the week. Cool temperatures have delayed hay, pasture and lawn growth. Some areas are getting just enough heat and are desperate enough for feed that a few cattle are going out onto the pastures but most remain stuck in yards. Hay supplies are dwindling. We desperately need some sunshine and warmth for crops, livestock and people's well being.
Weather continues to be a source of major frustration.
Rainfall almost daily, with accumulations of 15 - 22 mm. Frost on Sunday morning, and snow flurries reported on Thursday in some areas. Hail also reported in some locations. Wed, Saturday night, Sunday, and Monday afternoon, on well drained soils. Imperfectly drained soils have not been seeded.
