As you know Rick, grass land fires were always a thing. Setting the stage for renewal of the grasses and forbs. First Nation People always used fire to freshen their game land. From what I have read, the Alberta fires will go unchecked unless homes or communities get in the way of the burn. Don't know about you, but this is year two of wild fire smoke.
Last year was compounded by herbicide over spray beating up my veg garden.
We are in a extended drought. 22/23 winter was low precip.. Early and late Spring uncommonly cold and wet. Nothing got planted on time and late germination from because of no rain after planting.
It is rare to not have knee high corn by the 4 of July. Soybeans are just alive.
But. 1985 i think, Uncle Arnie's first corn seeding did nothing for dry. On the 4 of July Arnie replanted short day corn. I followed behind the planter and stepped in the shallow seeds. Norwegians just do things different. My 4th fireworks may have brought on the rain.
