4th hottest summer

An Article in the St. Louis Post Dispatch says this is the fourth hottest summer on record in St. Louis.  If you look at the years, the hot ones are also poor crop years.  I guess all things considered our crops will be the best or near best of the top ten hot years. 

The blue area below across mid-Illinois had less than an inch of rain in August. The Green area had less than 2.5 inches.  This includes all of our territory.  If you look close you can see county outlines in Illinois and Missouri.
