The featured graph presents the range of daily average 4 inch soil temperatures as observed from the ISU Ag site near Ames. The magic numbers of 32 (freezing) and 50 (minimum for corn sprouting) degrees are highlighted. Much warmer air temperatures are expected for the rest of the week with highs in the 80s! Wooo hooo!
