Rain makes grain sell it

Big flash flood problems across southeast Illinois where training supercells have dumped a ton of rain on already saturated fields. This was north of Albion, IL moments ago. Most rural roads look like this. @NWSLincolnIL

Timelapse shot of just a section of damage path north of Kouts, IN. This was a very violent #tornado with significant ground scaring.

On this day, 27 years ago, we chased what is well-known as the strongest #tornado in History.

This shows the F5 tornado near peak intensity, just after devastating the community of Bridge Creek, Oklahoma.

Aa freshman meteorology students at OU, we stupidly abandoned our Geo Tracker and took shelter under an overpass. Research was published that overpasses can accelerate the tornadic wind and be even more dangerous.

We then saw the terrible devastation in Moore, Oklahoma with horses wandering down the highway and people emerging from their destroyed homes. Over 50 people lost their lives from the May 3, 1999 tornado outbreak.

There was another massive violent tornado with a supercell to the north near Mulhall, Oklahoma that peaked after sunset.

The tornado outbreak was still going when I woke up for class the next morning at 7 am.

This is a day that Oklahomans will never forget. Enjoy the nice weather this May 3,

Record breaking planting season so far in NW Ohio

[Don Nelson @thebigyields]

When does this become a story?

[Don Nelson @thebigyields]

Just like that drought is all but gone in NW Ohio - rains next week should finish it off.

@blackdirtpaul lol clueless

🚨BIG news for America’s farm economy!🚨

📈 Farmer sentiment is on the rise. @POTUS Trump's trade and economic policy is working for rural America and our farmers are feeling it. The Ag Economy Barometer increased from 116 to 127 month over month

✅ Current Conditions Index: up 6 points

🚀 Future Expectations Index: up 14 points

🇺🇸 Growing optimism: more farmers say the country is headed in the “right direction”

🚜 Confidence in the future: more expect farmland values to increase over the next 5 years

Our work is ongoing—input costs remain too high, consolidation too extreme, and too much foreign-owned farmland.

But our farmers know President Trump is doing everything he can to reverse the trend of offshoring our food supply.

We will make farming GREAT AGAIN! 🇺🇸🇺🇸
