West Michigan
Up north the corn is not near ready yet. We don't combine dry corn even when it is the end of november. Our average first snow fall here is like November 6-8. Corn can stand after a snow, beans not so much. Beans are not ready until into October so it gives us about 3-4 weeks before it snows for the first time. We average year in and year out drying about half our beans as well.
