May in far-northern Wisconsin was damp and cool. Many mornings the air over land along Lake Superior almost invited Jack Frost for a late visit. It seemed like the liquid in outdoor thermometers was influenced more by gravity than by heat. Lake Superior surface-water temperatures in some are…

Whether working in the field or preparing the farm for severe storms, a weather forecast is essential. Folks might instinctively grab their smartphones to check an app for an instant weather update. But many times the sky has painted a different picture than what’s on that screen.

It has been a very busy couple of weeks here in southern Wisconsin. All the cropland needed to be worked and each field has its own needs. Disc-ing, digging and then culti-mulching for some; others just need the digger and the smoothing of the culti-mulcher.
