[QUOTE="EIEIO, post: 222109, member: 1947"] Don't think there is "normal" weather anymore. Been lucky to be in the 60's here during the day with nights down in the 40's plus it seems like rain every other day and it's sprinkling now. Anyway, the weather guessers are saying warm (70's to around 80 degrees) and dry from tomorrow till Saturday evening. I'm thinking if the sun is out in the morning I may cut one or both hay fields around 1 or so. Then Thursday just leave it out to dry till mid day and rake it. Leave it out till any dew is off it on Friday and then "flip" it again with the rake if I think it needs it and start baling. Would sure like not leave it in the field for 2 days but just don't know if it will dry out enough to bale in one, guess I'll find out. It's just been so dang wet out don't know how well it's going to dry. Not real thick stuff but sure better than last year. I've seen some folks east of me with alfalfa down but those guys must cut that stuff 4-5 times a year, least it seems like that anyway. So, anybody out there cut fescue yet?? I've not even seen anyone start yet but am thinking everybody in my area anyway may be starting tomorrow as this will be the first time we have had a warm, sunny, and dry forecast lasting more than 2 days in some time and it sure is time to cut.
