I am a bit of a screamer.

So is your wife

Seems to be all but over here in Ankeny, but sounds like tornadoes elsewhere. Stay safe everyone

 

[Cyched]

It was the greatest story ever told.

 

[cyclonespiker33]

I think we are safe? No power, but will probably venture upstairs to go to bed.

When did you turn 60 years old?

 

[Jnecker4cy]

Live near John Deere in Ankeny, old Ankeny and rain has stopped, wind gusts but really tame compared to what I was expecting. We still have power which is great because we always lose power at my place. I think the metro lucked out compared to other areas. Some wind thru the night though.

 

[Gonzo]

Nothing's over. The massive winds are on their way. Much worse than what came through with the storm.

 

[Bestaluckcy]

Power went out about three minutes after rain started. Right on schedule MA.

Just had the worst gust we've had in West Des Moines.

 

[cmjh10]

Area out?

Assume so

 

[FallOf81]

Weather channel said no winds over 100 mph in Minnesota since 1950. Iowa 6 events.

The minute I started getting up at 4 am for work. Plus, what else am I going to do?

[NorthCyd]

A little wet. Still good.

Another (weaker) line has formed behind the one that just hit in Des Moines.

You normally go to bed at 7? How much do you sleep?

Exactly. People don't relax.

 

[NoCreativity]

Just lost power in Beaverdale. It looks like a small line behind the main storm is moving through.

Well I wouldn’t say much worse since most saw 70+ mph winds with the leading edge of the storm. Similar winds ahead yes.
