Condition Monitoring Report  
Station Number: CO-KC-80
Station Name: Burlington 8.4 NNE
Report Date: 3/22/2026
Submitted: 3/22/2026 7:20 AM
Scale Bar: Moderately Dry
Description:
Farm and Ranch Family. Winter wheat stayed green through most of the winter. In the last month with little moisture and above normal temps, the color has changed from 'normal' green to light green and now some areas are brown on the neighbors around us, especially edges of fields and corners where tillage can be extra due to turning around, etc. I expect a week of above normal temps will take many acres of wheat beyond recovery for this season.  Western wheatgrass in pastures is starting to green up, normally this might not begin for another month. Fire risk is high. It's looking very bleak for those who make a living on the land.
