Much of the corn crop in central WI is toast.... I'm affraid if no rain for the next 10 days and high heat again crops in this part of state are a total loss

In north west NJ the corn and beans are getting burnt up badly here too. But we'll probably get snow on opening day bow when it's normally 80 degrees. The weather seems to be crazy the past year or so?

In central pa we had some WICKED thunderstorms for about 2 weeks every night. I cant say the crops here look bad in the least.

The little bit of rain we had on Sunday night in some areas did absolutely nothing for the drought here in southern WI. There are many trees around here losing leaves already from lack of rain. :shock:

Today they rated us in the "Severe Drought" category with no relief in sight. The sunny hot weather in the extended forecast is only going to make it worse.

I think the corn crop for sure is pretty much lost now and other crops are in danger of being lost as well. Not a good situation for the farmers.

Is that rain on the radar headed for SE WI? :shock:

Hard to believe......lets hope it doesn't dry up again before it gets here! It's headed to Jefferson county but doesn't look like it will make up by me! :roll:

The sky is black and the wind is out of control blowing everything around. I hear Fort Atkinson is getting a down pour right now. Wonder if the rain will make it into Rome, WI.

...... everything on my desk just got blown off by a huge gust of wind. :doh:
