I just shoveled my drive and an old ladies one. It was light and fluffy but we are close to 4inches in West Ames.

My wife just got back from Hy-Vee, and apparently this was the egg section:

Egg supply has been pretty bad recently. Doubt that was just sales.

I need distilled water for my cpap, and the shelves at walmart looked like the egg cooler. Didnt know distilled water was in high demand. But Hyvee had it.

I have a stockpile - I use it in my racecar radiator

Interesting and why?

CR looking like it's in a good place to get a decent amount of snow based on the radar.

Cedar Rapids? Weather Underground says 2.7 inches...guess I need to check another source...

It's more pure so it cools the engine better. Tap water has all sorts of minerals that hinder cooling. When you run 25 - 50 lap races at 8000+ RPM's and don't let the engine breath very often you need everything available to help keep the engine cool (especially in hot summer).

I just don’t understand how people use accuweather, weather channel, local news, wu, etc when there’s an entire NWS.

If you use straight antifreeze, that is what you are supposed to mix it 50/50 with so you don’t pit out your radiator.

Well ya I know that I didn't know a sport mod would be different.

Not great for beloved beta fish, though. They need those minerals.

Sorry, Blue Thunder.

Average talking and looking people are for plebes.

Also, humidifiers. We go through damn near a gallon a day in the baby's room this time of year.

It’s been like that the last few weeks at the local Target.

Is there an NWS app that puts it all in an easy to read (for us normal folk) format? I'd get that if so.
