S Illinois | What stages the wheat at? If the average low has just now gotten above freezing on average out there for the end of Mar, how "late" is a hard freeze on Mar 25th?
The April 2007 wheat damaging cold snap starting on April 4 and continuing for a week came after a very very warm Mar with most WW areas experience highs over half the time in Mar in the 70's and a handful of 80 degree days. Wheat was heading as far north as IL. This year Feb was record warm but March is backing off that significantly and is looking to be in the middle 1/3 of average temps for Mar in KS when all said and done. As such is there even wheat in the joint stage in that area?
Edit: Jointing not boot stage.
