September 2019 was wet in the Red River Valley. Rainfall totals of four-to-12 inches made it a difficult harvest. This record fall flooding was followed by an October snowstorm. National Weather Service Warning Coordination Meteorologist Greg Gust said the Red River Valley didn’t receive much more than an inch of rain in September 2020. “The topsoil conditions are getting pretty dry. Of course, it gets drier outside of the Red River Valley.” The harvest forecast looks positive.”Going into October and November, the outlook is trending toward warmer and drier than normal.”
