Running tally of 2008 rust finds
USDA Observation Map 7/24/2008 -- Red counties are positive for rust. Latest is on sentinel-plot soybeans in Columbia and Madison counties in FL, 7/20. Columbia had rust on kudzu earlier in year, Madison is a new positive. Total counties and parishes with rust in 2008: 25 in six U.S. states -- AL 1, FL 16, GA 1, LA 3, MS 1, TX 3; five municipalities in three Mexican states -- Taumaulipas 3, Veracruz-Llave 1.

USDA SBR forecast, issued 7/23: For 7/24-25 -- Unsettled weather will still be prevalent over GA and FL due to the low-pressure system centered over the Mid-Atlantic. By the end of Thursday, much of precipitation associated with that disturbance will move offshore. Throughout the day Thursday, Dolly will drench much of S. TX, much of the moisture that came with Dolly will have moved across the Rio Grande.
Risk Area: Much of E. and S. TX along with Northern Mexico will continue to be at risk for spore transport, deposition and survival that comes along with Dolly. Light winds will continue to be blowing from the south across AL, GA and FL, but limited amounts of rain and clouds, particularly on Friday, will limit spore deposition and survival.
