They have an abnormally high amount of fast food restaurants. That's special.

The entire state of Ohio is just weird with this inferiority complex. Strange vibe.

 

[CyArob]

What about Twin Cities for this storm system?

6-9"... Nice.

Kansas City takes the cake on inferiority complex. Probably because it’s full of Mizzous, Beakers, and Purple Cats.

I saw in the QC advice to shovel Sat morning due to a rapid drop in temps later in the day; actually good advice.

I like storms, even moderate, coming on the weekend as an excuse to not leave the house.

Not 7 foot. Don't want.

Anything about western Iowa, particularly the Omaha/Council bluffs area for this storm?

You mean dinner?

 

[cmjh10]

In BC'z neck of the woods, it is called supper, Son.

And thats the correct way

People in Arizona are the only people I'm jealous of this time of year.

Ohio has bigger cities, but outside of that it's like eastern Iowa on steroids.

I think you mean opioids

 

[CYEATHAWK]

Right.

But as far as I know, nobody local is forecasting 6 to 11 inches like the post you quoted saying "locals parroting national" now. So if TWC or other nationals were/are still going that high, they are definitely quite a bit higher than local forecasts like ours that are calling for ~3" in Des Moines, with 6 or 7 north.

Right.

This is how that went:

Just saw TWC and their latest has most of Iowa in the 5-8 range with the 8-12 area expanding south. Be interesting to see if they come down what the local forecast is....or the locals change to them.

KCCI and TWC showing 5 to 8 inches tomorrow with an additional 1 to 3 inches tomorrow night.

Now a winter storm warning. So the locals are starting to parrot the nationals. Be interesting to see how this plays out. The NWS is even hinting at issuing a blizzard warning for north and central Iowa.

Maybe Shawker, KCCI, TWC at the time are full of it and I should have put a question mark behind the parrot sentence? Of all the places on this site......I am not here to debate....I am just making conversation.

I always use supper because dinner is often confused.

Any actual updates on the storm?

I'd appreciate it if the rest of you would remain professional.
