Just went to pick up a few things from the store and noticed it is significantly heavier now.
He's a silver lab. Country Silver labs out of Manchester.
I'm sorry, just heard a report that Lone Rock is supposed to get 20" by the end of Friday.
Unfortunately everyone I love and care about is here. Maybe I can convince all of them to move too.
Not an expert, but I feel like it was supposed to be a tad warmer throughout the day leading to more rain as precipitation, but it stayed relatively cool and allowed the snow to start much earlier.
Promise?
Dry slotted right now, kind of disappointing so far, but looks like the heavier stuff isn't gonna come down til later
Unusual system. It's a cutoff low that is now in Minnesota/Wisconsin and is going to retrograde back into eastern Iowa, so that's pretty freaky to begin with, and harder to forecast a track for since it's cutoff from the jet, essentially just wobbling around like a spinning top.
Also it's a low coming out of the NW...not one from the SW and pulling in moisture from the gulf.
Storms coming out of the NW it's always a pain trying to figure out how much Pacific moisture has survived the trip.
Totals will bust if that heavy band moves around too much tomorrow and spreads it out, or stalls in the wrong spot. It's a shaky forecast totals-wise, but the wind will cover up a lot of that and you won't be able to tell, unless you get pushed totally out of the snow.
Temps this warm mean wet and heavy snow.. I'm curious how much I actually have to shovel with the CRAZY wind
Supposed to start tonight. Accuweather says 7” to your east. About a half inch of slush so far.
Not a big fan of the Iowa State Meteorology grads on the board, huh?
