Question about Temporary Corn Storage

Hi guys - need some advice here. I just shelled about 200 bushels of 16-17% corn. Weather looks like it's going to turn crappy for a few days. How long can I let this corn sit in my truck without fear of it heating up on me? I've seen some charts regarding moisture vs. time but they seem a bit forgiving to me. Any experience with this?

Thanks

Shouldn't be a problem for a week. If it is over 18%, then I'd want to get it moved.

I have right around 1000 bu sitting in the wagons & combine, got them Saturday nite, been raining since 5 minutes after I got the last wagon tarped.

A lot depends on air temp.

If it is cool, below 60 degrees it would keep for a month or more setting in a dry shed.

If its 75+ out there maybe a week or two.
