PET on 19 Sept 2004.
Sunday was one of those tremendous drying days that Iowa gets in the fall. Very little morning dew combined with strong SE winds and bright sunshine to produce excellent drying conditions. The ISUAG sites calculated a potential evapo-transpiration of around 0.3 inches. At the Agronomy Farm, we measured a pan evaporation of 0.31 inches of water.
