Despite a relatively small amount of precipitation falling recently, the most recent U.S. Drought Monitor map indicates that nearly all of Colorado is currently experiencing some level of drought. Trees in urban and community settings throughout this region are dormant now, but still require occasional watering during dry winters to remain in top health.
Temperatures across the eastern plains of Colorado will approach records before a winter storm moves in to much of the state for the weekend.
Highs across the plains will feel like spring Friday as the northern quarter of the state sees temperatures in the 60s, while southeast Colorado will be in the 70s.
A Deputy United States Marshall was killed Friday while serving an arrest warrant on a fugitive in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.
According to the United States Marshals Service, Deputy US Marshal Christopher David Hill, 45, and two other officers were shot while attempting to arrest Shayla Lynette Towles Pierce at a home in Harrisburg. An unidentified man at the home began shooting at officers, who returned fire and killed the man.
Deputy Hill was taken to a local hospital where he died. The other officers had non-life-threatening injuries and were treated.

I just wanted to pass along some information concerning the new tax bill and how it affects farmers. The following information came from our Ag Business Management Specialist Jeff Tranel. Hopefully you find it useful. There are, of course, still a lot of questions.
