Remember when everyone on here was concerned the north end zone video board would fall over in high winds?

Does anyone know what the Sports Performance Center was rated to?

Glad our siding from the derecho was finally done two weeks ago.

I plan on riding my first century today. I'm heading northeast leaving from Des Moines at noon. If anyone wants to pick me up in Dubuque around 1:45 let me know.

Hope the MidAmerica lineman get some sleep tonight, gonna be a long day for them tomorrow.

Noticed about 8 trucks parked for the night outside a hotel in Ankeny last night.

I'm just picturing playing holes 7, 8, and 9 at Otter Creek with the 50 mph wind out of the south

They need to fix it anyway...many pixels were not working right by the end of the year.

Keep it low, you'll be fine.

At least 90mph winds. With a nice factor of safety added on.

I work until 4:30. So far, no chance we'll get to leave early. So ... I'll just hope for no flying objects on my way home.

Guessing you're going to PR by, a lot.

Dont ever hashtag “moist” again lol

I don't understand why #moist people don't like that word

 

[Clonehomer]

A lot of Mets (especially NWS) still break it down “old school” with colored pencils.

I remember seeing someone one time using a sharpie to break down the path of a hurricane through Alabama.

Old dying walnut tree to the south of our house. We are effed. @BCClone is in charge of getting rid of our stuff

It’s for the attention, that’s it.

I think Decorah would be a better heading with the S/SW winds. Dubuque is a bit too much of an easterly heading. Plus, Decorah has the better beer stops!

Not my tree and the tree is in bad shape, probably not much worth saving?

I say go for it, just for the novelty of it.

I'm a big tennis player and it was always fun in HS to play in strong wins.
