| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | An early season freeze occurred over northern Iowa on the morning of the 15th. Temperatures fell to as low as a record 26 F at Mason City, with a large area of 30 degree F temps or lower. This freeze came on the same date as a similar freeze in 2007. Sub-freezing temperatures occurred over 41% of Iowa during the 2011 event, vs 52% during the 2007 event. The difference this year was that the crop was late being planted. The warm summer sped crop maturation during the summer to where the crop was near the 5 year average for mid September. In spite of the accelerated growth, the corn and soybean crop was just short of maturation by the 15th. Some damage occurred, especially to the soybean crop, with wilted leaves and damage to the main plant stem. Though crop losses were minor due to the progress, losses were in the area of $27,000,000 across a 10 county area with losses estimated to be 3-5% of the crop. |
