Very Early 2/21 Weather Thread

The heavy stuff is later.

I'm no expert, but the radar looks like a bust for most of central Iowa.

Not saying you are wrong, but it is still supposed to snow for the better part of the next 12 hours

So, is this storm a flop, or is it going to get worse? - specifically in eastern iowa. Doesn't look too intimidating on radar currently. Still early though...

EDIT - KCRG still projecting 5-7 inches in Iowa City/CR area according to tweet a few minutes ago...

Central IA is on the North side of what looks like a cyclonic system so the snow right now is coming from the East. It looks like there is still alot out there.

I should have used those damn spoiler tags, but they aren't in "quick reply" and I'm too lazy to type the code myself.

No one watches you guys for weather anyway. Once Kiernan is off, I turn to the most accurate forecast in the metro

A KCCI meteorologist wouldve put in the extra effort.

The dry air is going to kill this storm, I think not much snow for Ames 3-5 inches. Hope I am wrong!!
