along with the winter advisory or did that expire?

Nope, still there

That is nuts. Although we are supposed to get snow overnight as well so clearly atmosphere going through some *things* today.

That time of the month I guess?

Misogyny is lame.

Metro schools need to let out early. Hopefully its a bust here, but dismissing at the normal time during the heart of this seems like a very bad idea.

I was *this close* to making a menopause joke.

It's really impressive, honestly. Some of the loops now are showing things like specific supercell areas. Saw a projection for a major one near Little Rock - curious to see if that pans out.

Southern Iowa starting to light up

There are storms firing around the Iowa-Missouri border right now. One thing I'm not clear on...are we looking at potentially multiple rounds, or will this be it?

Two rounds.

Ditto for Ankeny School District. If a tornado hits while kids are being let out of school, there will be hell to pay.

 

[awd4cy]

Two rounds.

If you are in the location of the first round, will that reduce the severe potential of the second?

 

[jsb]

It’s real gross outside in Des Moines.

I feel that's usually how it works but this one seems to have a lot of juice so may not matter...

 

[enisthemenace]

We are on our way to Sioux City from DSM. When we left DSM, it was 65 and I see it’s around 75 now. We just went though Missouri Valley on I-29 and it’s 45 here.

 

[Al_4_State]

If it stays cloudy, mild, and rainy all day that really lowers the odds of a severe storm, right? No sign of the sun or any stop in the drizzle up on the MN border

First tornado warning just issued in Southern Iowa.

 

[Cyientist]

There were 3 mallard ducks perched on my neighbors roof in Ankeny. Take that for what it is worth.

Not necessarily. The first round will likely be less widespread and more stand alone supercellular. The second round on the cold front will become linear after development.
