Weather underground showing 8.4 for the metro, usually the most accurate website I follow.

- Weather Underground: 8.4”
- NWS: 7” - 11”
- WHO: 8.1”

That's so you will go outside and play.Wife just told me she was hoping for 6". hmmm...
22 year cycles per Taylor. If you think back to 2000, we had a run of 3 warmer early starts to winter.My research is based on my unscientific study of my racing schedule. Races scheduled for late March and early to mid April have been getting cancelled in the last few years do to cold and snowy conditions at that time.
With tomorrow's snow, that's probably only a difference of approximately 0.40" of rain, so now as big as you'd think.I think I am approximately in the 4 to 9 range. How can it be that wide-ranging? There is a hell of a difference between 4" and 9".
I'd have to look up the snow stats, but there may be something to it because I do know Iowa's severe, and particularly tornado season has been starting later recently.My research is based on my unscientific study of my racing schedule.

Had the boat on the lake April 3rd last year.I have no data and could be completely misremembering from a bad year or two, but it seems like we have little spring at all anymore. Winter spills over into spring and then by June it's just hot.
So I have to drive to Kansas City tomorrow at like 2pm from Des Moines. How screwed am I? KC report says snow starting later at like 7pm.
I don't know if the seasons have "shifted" temperature wise or not, it just seems like it's been rare to get much, if any snow in December the last several years, and we've been getting at least one big one in March. We've even had snow recently in early April as well.I'd have to look up the snow stats, but there may be something to it because I do know Iowa's severe, and particularly tornado season has been starting later recently.
