Winter Weather - 10/18 - 10/19

[cyclone1975]

I love Cyclonefanatic winter storm threads and I am excited we have an early one! They pretty much never pan out, but I still enjoy reading about the possibilities. I just can’t look away!

I’m at the driving range. Probably 8mph wind, right around 50 degrees. Should be mid-50’s by tee time, possibly some drizzle.

There wasn’t at my house.

I’m in West Ames. It seems to have already melted some since I posted. It could have also been a little less than an inch.

 

[BCClone]

Same in North Central Iowa.

What part of north central? We have none along highway 18

I live in West Ames, maybe a 1/10th of an inch.

I’m in west Ames north of Lincolnway. Looked out at 5 and saw grass and leaves poking through the snow. Pretty sure no inch here. I kind wish there had been more to melt and leave some moisture though.

It seems like every year fall and spring get shorter and we just lurch between summer and winter.

I don’t even know what spring and fall is anymore. It’s just “Flooding” and “Leaf Collection”.
