It's not the snow. I don't think it got cold enough last night to cause any damage. And the snow helps insulate the growing point from frost (as crazy as that sounds, ice does insulate from cold).
It's ****ing tonight. Intellicast is calling for 23 degrees. That's too much.
I'm not overly worried about it at this point. The 48 hours under 25 on April 10th crushed most of my wheat. I've got a few fields that still have some decent yield potential (in the event it ever rains), but most of the acreage has a very low yield potential at this point.
I'm just happy for the little bit of moisture that came. My corn/milo still has some potential.
