I'm debating whether or not to cut hay this Friday (30A). Looks like we're getting rain on Thurs, and then the long term forecast has us with a 30-40% chance on Sun/Mon. If I can get it cut on Fri and tedder it on Saturday, I think that I could get it baled on Sun..
My questions: how do you treat the weather forecasts and hay? Do you only pay attention to short term or do long term forecasts play into your decisions? How big a chance of rain is too big (ie: 30, 40, 50% etc). Do you have a source that you prefer (local news, farmers almanac, etc)?
