The QC
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.

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.

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