It's cold now, get picking!
Your only trouble will be the center core of the wire crib gets less airflow. And it will get packed up with the kernels and chaff where the elevator dumps down the middle of the crib. These kernels pack about solid and no airflow.
If you have a vertical wire or wood tunnel up the middle of the crib to let air get in there, or if you are -very- good at screening the ear corn to keep kernels out, or if you start feeding out the middle of the crib right away to keep that solid core moving, then you can put near 30% moisture corn in a crib in our colder climate.
But you really need to manage that core where the kernels end up packing in.
do not try to store 20+ moisture corn in a wagon with no air flow. That would be bad.
