    Jumbo I know what you mean. These past two years snow removal has been the worst I have ever seen. My wife works at the labs and they dont even plow the road leading down to them :)

    Re: Official Monday blizzard thread

    I've been sitting in the Memphis airport for 3 hours and have 2 to go. I left DSM on the 11:05 so that I didn't get screwed by the blizzard for my 5:15 PM flight. I just checked and that flight isn't scheduled to go until 7:36 now so the weather must suck a bit back there. Looks like the forecast helped me not spend the night in DSM or MEM...

    might want to be patient. I don't think anyone said it was going to start @ 2 in the afternoon...

    Wind really picked up here in Ames.

    Glad I have quarter.

    The snow falls hard and don't you know?

    From the Steamboat Springs, Colorado where I live they finally reopened Rabbit Ears Pass (Highway 40). It had been closed due to heavy snowfall.
