Wind

[wslayer]

I think we should pull out some more tree rows so it can really get a head of steam scooting across the state.

Yesterday was the first day in over 2 weeks wind came from the south uther then that the wind has been blowing from the n/nw and today back to a north wind. I believe its going to be one of those years where we see higher then avg wind speeds, its dry but not nearly as dry as it is out west.

Played golf with south wind 2 days last week.

You pussies need to grow a pair and accept you made a shitty choice of where to live.

Its doesn't help that the farmers spray so much roundup and it killed those tree rows. If north dakota ever gets a few years where we get below normal precipitation it wont matter if they are using no till planting, i know many in the red river dont plant using no till because the soil in the fields are to heavy gumbo clay. Next thing farmers will be doing is reverse drainage pumping water back into the tile to bring moisture up in the topsoil.

When i was a young lad i would be flying a kite in this wind, until the string broke and im walking over to the next section to find it.

I think roundup gets the blame for a lot of Dicamba drift.

There will be lots of red white and blue smoke too. Isn’t going to be fun.

I wish I could say you are wrong.

And cold too, we had frost 5 or 6 days in a row last week.

I remember in 2000-2003 colder temps, wind and rain/snow during finals week sometimes which would be this week or next week still. After that things become a blur especially after I started traveling for work to good ol Iowa and such so I was basically only around home 8-10 days per month

I'm willing to accept that my Norwegian heritage chose varying seasons of Hot and Dry, Hot and Humid, Cold and butthole deep snow, so cold that you can flash freeze almost anything in 30min and a few days of everything is just right VS venomous snakes, bugs, and hurricanes.
Maybe why my grandpa stopped where he did in the state is this eastern side because after he worked int he western ND thrashing and dealing with rattle snakes he said F' this I'm hoping a train and going back to get married and raise cattle on that side of the state

I love everything about ND, except the wind, which seems to have become a much bigger problem in my later years. As a child growing up east river, I don't remember 40-140+ mph winds almost daily.

Makes that low-till/no-till stuff seem even more appealing when the wind never stops blowing.

I never seen so many rollers/packers in the fields as I have in the last week. My neighbor leased a big one and rolling all his fields. There not blowing near as much

The dust right now looks like fog, here at Ft KDM. The whole river valley is bathed in tan. Not good. We need rain. A good 2-4 inch soaker that lasts 3 days would be just fine with this old guy.

 

[Shockwave]

I'm hoping we don't get the amount of tornado's we had last year. It got to the point that if there was a chance of thunderstorms, I was not going camping because just about every storm produced tornados.

 

[shorthairsrus]

were going to get some rain. I have been saying this all winter that damn north wind (even though today its SE) Super Elino whatever it is ----- If it keeps going like this and mix with humid weather with abrupt cold fronts --- smoke storms wind. I just want to go fishing

 

[LBrandt]

If this wind stops I will fall flat on my face. Sometimes weighing close to 300# has its advantages. LB

I remember when the highly erodible land never blew when it was covered with CRP and the pastures still were grass and there wasn't a fucking drain in every wet spot.

Hmmmmmm, don’t shelter belts help stop soil erosion?

Funny!! Every Tom, Dick, and Harry is dozing, piling and burning them as fast as they can!!

I must be mistaken….they mustn’t do shit!!

Secure that situational awareness, deductive reasoning, common sense, critical thinking, and simple observations. We don't need any of that in today's society. Just stick you face in your phone, do what you're told, and don't ask questions. Remember, it's for the children.

I don't like children. They smell funny and shoot all the deer.

The only thing safe in the woods when my kid is hunting is the deer.

As far as the wind, be careful outside fellas. Lots of wildfires are breaking out across the state today.
