Actually, the most recent models are predicted a reduced level of destruction, ending in general maiming, as opposed to straight up death. Either way, it looks like Iowa is in for a serious weather event delivering somewhere around 72 inches of rain, and Buick sized hail. I suggest you check the Freese-Notis.

We'll see how KCCI handles this tonight with regards to interrupting the basketball game...that is always a fun topic.

Hopefully better than WHO did during the Stanley Cup 2 years ago.

By the way Jon, are you bummed out that you're not going to be able to watch Big Bang Theory tonight?

I personally don't mind the cut ins due to weather...now, just dont mess with LOST tomorrow night.

**Al_4_State** · 04-05-2010, 03:28 PM

Cut-ins for weather bug the hell out of me, unless it's a tornado. Run the info on the bottom of the screen, and leave it be.

I actually love stormy weather. I just get a little on edge now when it happens. I was fortunate to have the Parkersburg tornado miss my house by just over a mile.

Ed Wilson, pssh, please. That's not even his real name.

Yeah.... that is totally understandable.

I like stormy weather too as long as entire towns don't get wiped off the map.

I used to like storms...now with kids, I do not...especially overnight storms.

If your in Eastern Iowa and haven't heard KCRG is going to start breaking in on 9.0 or whatever the digital channel of it is update the situation return that to regular programming and go wall to wall if necessary on 9.2.

That won't help tonight with the game since that's on CBS and KGAN has no clue how to do severe weather and are monkeys.

It won't bother me one bit. I care more about severe weather in the area this time of year than I do anything on TV...other than LOST ;)

Nah, Grace is pretty good...she knows that her daddy is on the watch, sleeping in the guest room with the weather radio on the nightstand...I reassured her of that just a few minutes ago...I dont think Mary cares (1 yr old)...she is full of it.

will be a long night for sure, by the sound of it..especially when the alarm clock goes off before 5
