Jeremy, do you know why sex is like snow?


Because you never know how much you are going to get...
I think there is more there. Like a lot of times there is a lot of teasing and forecasting for a lot, but usually you end up with none.

You two must have a grade schooler alive and well in you with your obsession with snow. Snow doesn't do anything for me except create more work and dangerous driving conditions.
I like to cross country ski, snow shoe and I've got dogs that are built for the snow that I like to take for hikes in it.

If it's going to be cold, I'd much rather there be snow along with it so I can actually do something.

Driving is usually sketchy for like a day, then the roads are fine.

Do you live in Iowa? If so, sounds like you need to move to northern Minnesota or Wisconsin. I had a coworker who was an avid cross country skiier. I like to run, so I expressed some interest in taking it up during the winters to him and he basically told me not to bother. He owns a cabin up in northern Wisconsin where he does his winter stuff.
 
Longer term it sounds like El Niño is looking more likely

That would be ideal.
 
La Nina is gone. Latest charts I saw at a conference last week said El Nino will be here this early summer/late spring.

Snow flurries in Ames. Quite a bit actually in very short time.
 
Supposedly not going to kick back over into snow until around 4:30 or so. No snow at Henry's Diner?
It's been rain the last few hours and looking at foreflight that's about to stop. You can still see the grass through the little bit of slush and roads are pretty clear. Won't hit freezing until after midnight so travel should be ok around here.

Wait we have another pilot on here?
