A Kentucky farmer says it's so hot, his corn is popping in the field.
The tale may not be as tall as a corn stalk, though.
Patrick Preston has sent a photo of the burst kernels to the Kentucky Cooperative Extension Service.
Extension agent Doug Shepherd tells a local paper he's never seen popped kernels like it before.
But he says the outer coat of a kernel can explode from heat after the ears are pollinated.
