Hot and dry down here to. We lucked out with 3/4 of an inch monday, so I went and cut some burned up fescue and still managed to start a small fire. Stupid rock! Corn chopping starts next week.
Ohio is good for drying wood this year to. I think the white oak I cut last fall and this spring will be under 20% by fall.
We've had one 4 tenths of an inch rain and two, two tenth rain falls since april or may. The cracks in the ground are about big enough to loose a small cat in. Unless we get rain in the next day or two, most all crops here will be a total loss. I also have a couple of maple trees that are sheding there leafs.

Is the corn chopping planned or forced?
That's about how big the best ears look here. Some plants don't even have ears, or they look about the size of those baby ears you see at a Chinese restaurant. I only saw them get one cutting of hay here.I think it would make about 20bu per acre. It will make a good amount of silage, which I need due to the poor hay year and I've been feeding sense the 25th of may.
Yeah, that is strange. Now, maybe if the Oak was dead standing for years when cut and the Walnut was alive...I did some moisture testing, found it odd the white oak was so much lower than the walnut s/s on the same day.
Yep, great fire wood drying weather. They are plowing crops under in Southern IL.
Well, I don't know how wide spread it is, but I saw them plowing up corn.Wow. Are you serious Steve?!! Is it just the corn or beans too?
Oh, come on BD, there are some I think would probably look good "naked around a bon-fire"May be good drying fire wood fast but the prices we all will see at the grocery store will be more than the offset the burning of dry firewood.
Another good thing; maybe they will smarten up & not add corn ethanol to the gasoline.
Don't hold your breath though. Gov't subsidized.
You guys went from "the winter that wasn't" to serious heat & drought.
Time for a serious "naked around a bon-fire" rain dance. LOL
No pictures plez
