Before Curt Cignetti flipped Indiana from chump to champ, there was Bill Snyder and the Manhattan Miracle.

Kansas State was a wasteland with numbers so hideous it nearly dropped football. Then Snyder arrived and the rest is history.

A gift article.

🚨 With the recent detection of New World screwworm in a 3-week-old bovine in Zavala County, TX, USDA urges residents to contact your veterinarian right away if you see any suspicious wounds, maggots, or infestations in your animals or herd.

If you see signs of maggot infestations in live or very recently dead wild animals, especially in areas near the U.S./Mexico border, please call 866-4USDA-WS (866-487-3297) to report it to your local USDA Wildlife Services office.

With #wheat barely a foot tall, the flag leaf is already emerging—a sign the crop is rushing to reproduce under stress, leaving too little structure to support a harvest. Less than 10% may be #harvested in West Texas.

A more consequential global disruption is unfolding beyond oil. About one-third of fertilizer that is shipped by sea travels through the Strait of Hormuz, with dire implications for the world’s food supply. https://t.co/GaAKy3D8nJ

@okmesonet Pretty incredible that Hobart, Altus, Weatherford, and Butler (not to mention the Panhandle) are all at essentially 6 months (180 days) with less than 2.5 inches of rainfall - even in the "dry" season.

Even with the cloud cover impacting view, satellite is showing some massive fires in the Sandhills of Nebraska this afternoon.

KU researchers have found that a new weather forecasting system could increase the lead time on issuing tornado warnings beyond the typical 15 minutes. Longer lead times could save lives across Kansas and other tornado-prone states. https://t.co/ItyuyoxWSc
