Sure is nice to get the rain after a long dry spell. We needed rain badly and got 1 in. but about another inch in the form of hard rain and it was severe in some places. My neighbors got completely hailed out. It was big stuff, the size of baseballs in some places and completely flattened corn that was 4 feet tall. The soybeans were about knee high and all that is left is about a half inch tall piece of stem sticking out of the ground. My oats got creamed. I will at least have some place to haul manure now. I feel fortunate with my damage after looking at other damage. They say that the beans will come back if the main stem hasn't been damage to bad even though the leaves are all gone. The tassels in the corn hadn't emerged yet and if it isn't damaged below that point it will make corn yet but probably some field lodging later on. I will be very watch full of thunder storm forecast from now on.
