I'm in northern Kansas. Yours were in after mine by about 10 days. I'm still about ten days to two weeks out. It's not a thing that you can put on the calendar. Once the leaves are off start checking. Go to the middle of the field where there was a decent stand and check there. When it tests ok walk out of the field checking as you go.
If they are ready RUN to the combine quick before it rains on them. Get them cut just as fast as humanly possible and to the elevator before they run out of room and turn you away.
