Nzoner's Game Room>*****Severe Weather Thread-2020*****

Many may know-I am a weather watcher. I have a weather station at school that posts to many weather services. Also have a website with a Twitter account. (with a Chiefs list)

Below is the Windy.com map. I centered it on KC but it can be moved to where you are located. Or go to Windy.com-there is also an app.
Very versatile and tons of possibilities. This map is fully functional for the viewer.

Some have already had severe weather-where as I am looking at 5 inches of snow for Easter.

One would think. Hasn't materialized in the futures yet anyway.

Think of the mess. That is all worthless. Chop it up and use more chem next year for the volunteer corn.

Is there any way to use that for anything if it can be recovered or is it just fertilizer now.
I imagine if a guy needs silage he can get it cheap.

Depending on how far along it was there probably isn't much viable seed out if it dies fairly soon. Could be wrong though. If even half the seed is viable...Ugh.

I had some serious wind damage on some corn and dropped like 70 bu/ac off last year. (That was awful enough) and yeah the volunteer was a pain.

Hah, no not really. We're still in monsoon season, so humidity has been much higher than it was back in early June. But it is falling apparently; we're down to 17% today.

MCCALLSBURG, Iowa —
Towns around Ames are struggling with more than just power. McCallsburg is one place where the city said conserving water is vital.

Residents were happy Wednesday morning as power was returned in McCallsburg, but water is the next concern. The city released a statement on its Facebook page that reads in part, "another reminder to conserve water... All we have is what's in the tower."

"We haven't really been using a lot of water. Anyway, it's not fun to take a shower with cold water so it makes sense to conserve what we have," said Kaia Hopkins, a resident.

The city estimates it may take up to 10 days for things to return to normal.

"You have no idea when power is coming back you know. You don't have power to fill the water tower. You don't have water so you have to conserve what you have," said Jesse Richardson, a resident.

Wednesday afternoon the city posted on its Facebook page that water was being pumped into the tower, but still urges residents to conserve water.
