Texas/New Mexico Stateline | I have found a predictor program online that will predict the GDD available based on the historical averages for a given start date. BUT it won't work in our location. The closest I can get is SW Kansas. We are 200 miles further south and west.

I like it as you can put in the variables for the corn hybrid to estimate silking and black layer. But would like something exactly like it that will use our local historical weather. Even something like Amarillo are would be better.
Pioneer website will predict for our area, but will only predict starting with the current date. I can't find a way to put in a later date as the starting point, which seems rather unhelpful for what I want to know. And doesn't allow for inputting variety attributes.

Basically I'm just interested in how late you can plant a particular hybrid and the likelihood of it making it before frost.
