Wild Weather

rusty6 · Mar 8, 2022

Again with the wild weather. Travel not recommended in most of South Sask. with snow and blowing snow. Temp just a few degrees above zero. Highways blocked or too slippery to drive on. I got so lucky yesterday getting the last five loads of contracted grain hauled while weather was still half decent. My nephew got a bit of drone video while we loading grain with the 2090 Case on the grain vac plus I got a little in cab view and etc. on my channel. Going nowhere today.

They keep saying we are going to get a storm but it never makes it . Hopefully youll get some moisture and not just wind and cold like here

We have a lot of snow everywhere already. Really hard to get around in the fields with the blade or the snowblower. More than we have had the past few winters for sure.

Well thats good anyway then . Did you get any fall rain ?

Great that you have been able to get your crop shipped out. The final step in the long process of crop farming. Most worry about planting and harvest, but I think getting the crop to the elevator is darned important too.
We have been getting crazy swings in weather here in Ontario too. Sunday it was 55F . Monday it was back down below freezing, and kicked up a high wind snow storm that made driving very slippery, and poor visibility from blowing snow. But March can be that way.
Drone videos and pictures are still so new to me , I cant help but think , this must be what the world has always looked like for birds. Our view here on the ground isnt much better than a cat or a cow has.

I was always fascinated by aerial views, climbing up on buldings, trees, etc. to get a picture from a higher location. The drone is just ideal for that.
There is still wheat to sell over at the "hundred acre woods" but there is so much snow to move that I won't be in any hurry. Price will probably go up a little more if I wait anyway. (Or go down). I'm lucky to have it. Last year's drought left a lot of farmers with only insurance claims for the low yields.

Very good drone video and I also enjoyed your new video on YouTube. Glad to hear you are moving grain when the price is good. As always thanks for your videos.
