20% here in Northwest Essex before this belt of rain hit us. now raining fairly hard so nothing doing until tomorrow pm provided we miss the thunderstorms forecast for tomorrow. Lucky here to have all our land within a three mile radius so I can do a quick moisture test easily when I feel the crop has dried a bit. When I hear wheat crackling in the sun and wind I know its worth doing a test. Not heard it do that a lot this year! Difficult for you folk with land spread about here and there when showers hit one farm and miss another. some sort of remote sensing would be good I guess.
