Sumner County

That's tomorrow at 5.

The folks in Sumner County are hosting a chili kickoff and candidate meet and greet.

That's coming up on the 24th of October from 3 to 6 at the Raymond Fry Complex in Wellington.

You can meet a bunch of Republican candidates, get some free chili, cast a vote in a chili poll and a bunch of giveaways and just five bucks, by the way, for the chili feed down there in Sumner County.

The Central County Republican Party is holding their meeting on the 22nd at the Central County GOP headquarters at Douglas and Webb.

So don't forget that.

They kind of missed out on the core of the heaviest rain.

They only got about an inch to two inches in places from basically – Sumner County, north and east to about Miami County.

And, you know, that's an area that does average more precipitation, but they still end up actually with a deficit for the week.

We are seeing average precipitation.

But at the same time, there's not much wheat that is grown there.

We Look more in the wheat-growing region, right? Salina to McPherson and south of Summer County and west from there.

Predominantly, that region got anywhere from zero inches in parts of northwest Kansas and southwest Kansas to maybe an inch or an inch and a half, right, in other parts of this thing.

How do these current conditions impact planting?

It's a pretty pretty sizable project again all over the country and not necessarily in the areas where you might that we report a lot on all the growth and sales opportunities in the intermountain states or in Texas and other Sunbelt states but two of the very largest right now in the planning are in Kansas, that's it.

Evergy, Kansas Central, Scott Project planned in Sumner, Kansas, Reno, Kansas, both at 765 megawatts.

There was a number in Texas for sure.

Energy Texas has a 754 megawatt plant planned to go live July 2020.
