***OFFICIAL 2026 WEATHER THREAD***
Metro is a battle ground tonight. I'm going 3-7" but fully expect big differences from south to north. Overall band of 5-9" running from Audubon to Waterloo. Wouldn't be surprised for some running 10"+ either. Wind kicks up to 35 closer to midnight. Visibility issue there. But sticky... -

*** @ Oklahoma State Pregame Thread ***
Iowa State vs Oklahoma State is missing out on the ultimate "Sickos" game. Had the game been in Ames, the game would be played amidst heavy snow throughout the duration. Instead, it's a cloudy Stillwater with temps in the 50s and a stout breeze. -

Northern Lights
There's been a little bit of an uptick in tonight's intensity since about 8:30 or so. But clouds are really starting to become our enemy now. As others have mentioned, it's not near as intense tonight either. Could still flare.
