I golfed in it. Wow. The direction was different for a change.
Yep, me too. It was shifty for us too. Thought I was going to need all of my normal club for a par 3 because the wind was in my face, and then it switched to a tailwind and I sailed the green.
We had a par 3 directly into it. A smoked 3 wood (250 yard club in normal conditions) still didn't get there (197 yard hole). One of those off the face you're like "oh **** get down get down get down" and then it's 10 yards short of the green.
Lol, yeah. I used my 140 yard club for a 110 shot and got absolutely all of it (going over a huge brushy area) and it hung in the air forever and almost looked like it was coming back at me, but it made it.
Also hit a 190 yard 9 iron with the wind. Had a creek short so I had to make sure to get over that, but I clubbed down since the wind was with me.
I love CF!
Earlier we were asked if this was a weather thread or a crop report thread. Now I don't know if it's weather thread or a golf thread.
Here's hoping everybody has an enjoyable weekend--WEATHER that be tidying up what's left to do in the fields or making that first hole in one!

If you're in the Southwest, stay safe!

Records tumble in Southwest US as temperatures soar well into triple digits and 122 in Death Valley
Records have tumbled across the Southwest United States as temperatures soared past 110 degrees in parts of California, Nevada and Arizona.
Last year we had corn shredded a week or two before combined started rolling. Hurt a little but not a huge amount.
That would really suck to be ready for harvest, then have something happen to it.

Hey, great news! I’m in an outdoor Shakespeare production that opens Friday and runs through the end of June! We all just looooove being soaked with sweat in our woolen costumes for the performances. So great.

Julius Caesar, free outdoor Shakespeare at City Park in Iowa City. June 14-30.
We’ve had absolutely awesome weather for rehearsals (even tonight is a little cool for some folks) but it’s not outdoor theatre in the summer without a few 90-degree afternoons.
Except for some severe storms, the month of May was absolutely awesome for Iowa with its moderate temperatures and drought busting precipitation.
Unfortunately, I'm afraid it will soon be time to brace ourselves for the inevitable hot and dry conditions that the next few months are gonna bring.
I miss May already.

Damn, Mississippi is not feeling the weather gods love.
