No sleep for me tonight. Wind and our giant A frame windows don't allow me to sleep. I just lay there waiting for them to shatter.

The good news about waking up to a bunch of trash in your yard tomorrow… at least it’s garbage day.

Strong winds are here now. Temp is down just 12 degrees from before “everything.” Guessing it’ll start dropping quicker. Hope trees don’t follow suit.
It's storming in South MPLS now. Back end of this will cause a flash freeze and ice and snow overnight. Incredible.
From our viewpoint, SW MO, the front has not come thru yet (but coming soon - a couple of hours) and it's still warm. Was about 71d today I think. Very nice but windy earlier. Highs tomorrow mid to lower 50's, lows tomorrow night not getting as cold as you guys (mid to low 40's).

After getting hit (not house thankfully) and about 60 trees down in our woods, from a tornado 2.5 years ago, I take weather much more seriously.

I had some beer cans piled up so I took them to the recycling bin outside. The smoke smell is crazy, considering it's coming from Kansas. Also, the warm breeze is unreal with it being the middle of December.

My son worked tonight at Michael's in Ankeny. Said they closed up for about 2 hrs and were in the break room. Also they heard that the Sams Club in Ankeny had some damage.

Sirens blowing here in Muskieville.

NWS shows the front stalling out.

We'll see what is up!
