3/4 weather thread

That would be good, and i'll agree with vtxcyryd that i could also do with low wind and low 40s.

I'm just ready for spring, and to open up the windows and get outside.

I could spring for 50 with a very light breeze on Saturday if the weather guys could make it happen.

Sitting here in the Cedar Rapids area it is bright and sunny! But that isn't going to last long...sounds like we could get buried tonight!

despite my intense wishing for a snow day, all this talk of warmer weather makes me want spring. I want barefeet and open windows making our apartment smell nice. And little birdies chirping outside.

What has changed in the storm that now some higher predictions are coming from the GFS?

Not much. The run-to-run variability of the models isn't always anything more than just the randomness that comes with numerical modeling. Have to look more at trends than just one abrupt change most of the time. (Though sometimes abrupt random change is right...see last Tuesday).

Still feeling good with about 2" maybe 3" in Des Moines. Possibly a little rain/frz again like last night.
