 | Title : Enough heat thus far
 | Date  : 11 Jun 07:22 AM
 | Votes : Good: 17   Bad: 6
 +----------------------------------------------

The featured plot is of growing degree days (GDD) from the ISUAG network since 1 May along with the departure from climatology.  The entire state has picked up more heat units than it would typically, but the application of GDDs since 1 May is not useful if the crop was just planted a few weeks ago!  You can pick your own time interval with <a href="http://mesonet.agron.iastate.edu/GIS/apps/agclimate/gsplot.phtml">this application online</a>.
