I don't think that map is showing the same temp readings that farmer use. Soil temps for the sake of planting crops are taken at 7:00 am every day I believe it is. That map you're linking to appears to be using an around the clock average or something. If you want to get a true reading then buy a meat thermometer for a few dollars and check your field one morning. Measure the temp at 4 inches deep.
