Storm #1 is happening in the Twin Cities. Watched the game, obviously, but seeing the snow starting outside the window in my peripheral vision.

Did put the curb marking orange fiberglass marker sticks back up after I took them down last week.

Ground is covered with snow this morning. I can see grass sticking up through the snow , so we didn’t get much.

Yep, it's straight up snowpocalypse between Huxley and Ames right now. Probably 3 inches in last hour. Interstate 35 north at a standstill.

Lots of 4 inch reports around Ames after that big win last night!

4" 30 miles east of Ames. Still snowing hard.

 

[herbicide]

Maybe an inch plus in Ankeny. Some big arse flakes were falling. More like miniature snowballs.

Was no point in clearing the snow when I left this morning because of how hard it was coming down still. Here's to hoping there's enough heat in the concrete that it all melts today or I'm going to have an absolute sloppy disaster to clear this evening when I get home.

Cedar Rapids roads are a ********. Trace to an inch? Swing and a miss.

Yeah CR roads are crap. My life flashed before my eyes a couple dozen times on the S curve on my way to work this morning. Yikes.

Not a great day to proctor 8AM exams.
Missing 25% of my class.

 

[Hoggins]

I am not shoveling/plowing this ****. **** those kids. It can melt and people can walk their ass through it if they so desire.

 

[wxman1]

CR is an absolute mess. Took 20 minutes to go a half mile on Boyson to get the kids to school.
