central - east central Minnesota -

c-xr-1 - 9/7/2014 17:49 Aren't many of the crops in northern growing areas 2-3 weeks (or more) behind developmentally? A cool/cold air mass is coming this week (lows & high temps) to park in southern MN/nothern IA vicinity for several days & no forecast for much warmth - later on....whether a frost/freeze event occurs is relatively academic (meaning-less), at this juncture. Plant respiration will slow way down by Tues night - cease at times - for days. No real warm up in the next 2 weeks. How does anyone foresee these crops having a chance to finish with a full tank (so to speak)? If anyone believes "the trade" is hanging on a particular event which may or not - happen----think again and watch the trade...Max production has come and gone in the trade in case y'all missed it. thanks -JMHWEPO

Indian summer - (oh, that's not socially acceptable term any longer, sorry) -- good warm/hot long spell after cold spells so early in the season . . . . .  If it doesn't snow/freeze till mid-November, next weeks cool temps aren't a concern ~
