We had a high of 63 yesterday and are supposed to hit 93 tomorrow. For us this is a big change for this time of year. Way too hot too fast, we haven't had the time or the need to pull out the fans yet. Will be getting them going early tomorrow morning.

wow...30 degrees. that's quite a change. It must be hard on the cows... Its supposed to 71 here tomorrow in WI. My steer is loving the weather. We haven't had any severe weather yet here. I hope those who have had it are all okay and doing well and didn't lose any cattle during the storms.

Sopposed to be in high 80s over the weekend. High winds today. Powder dry and the poor grass looks like it is trying to die. We need rain about as bad as any time I can remember. It is NOT pretty!

 Red - I will trade you the warmer weather for the rain. My husband farms on the side and his corn sure could use another dose of rain right about now. It looks like alot of it is already starting to tossle out. I am not complaining because he got some good rain a few weeks ago, a little more sure would be nice..... Lisa

Well they changed our forcast for today (imagine that!) now we are supposed to hit 95 or higher. That's a 32 degree increase in two days. The cows don't like it at all, my son's market steer left feed for the first time. Last week we had highs in the 50's, our corrals and alleyways were 6 inches deep in mud. But we certainly can't complain too much as so many have had such bad weather, a little unseasonal heat won't kill us.

wow, we had 40 this morning. Very windy & some rain. a brother-in-law farms over 6,000 acres & doesn't have a thing in because they are so wet. Little rain over the weekend & forcast for most of week.
