Storm keeps moving north. Big time cut off around 10pm above Des Moines

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

It’s not gone from what I can see, but 82% chance it is in March/April.

January 2023 La Niña update, and the ENSO Blog investigates, part 2

No, your eyes are not deceiving you. The latest ENSO Outlook does in fact favor the end of La Niña with a slightly over 80% chance that ENSO-Neutral conditions will reign supreme by springtime. For more on that and another look at how daily temperatures vary during winter, click below.

Pelting snow here in CR now. Started maybe 15-20 minutes ago

 

[BCClone]

Cool. And that means what? More weather?

It will be moist.

It's 100% rain right now in Altoona. Had just a trace of sleet that is now melted. 6:06 PM.

 

[ClonesTwenty1]

How 13 is still seeing 4 inches of snow for Des Moines is beyond my knowledge

 

[CychiatricWard]

This is ********.

 

[aauummm]

Now we've got a bunch of snow popped up south of DSM headed north. That might be the snow that we get, but it doesn't look like a huge amount. Weather Underground is saying 2.4" for the Metro.

Getting heavy snow in Marion right now

Wowza. The ice just ended here in Amana. Its now rain.

 

[SaraV]

I would call it snow showers here in north Ankeny.

 

[isufbcurt]

Nothing in Altoona yet. It's too warm, it's not reaching the ground. 2:05 PM

Yeah I ran to the airport, then Ankeny and back to Newton and it was just rain

 

[snowcraig2.0]

Now raining in Marion

 

[cyclone87]

Sleet and snow has changed to mostly snow in Ames at the moment

 

[JP4CY]

Sloppy big heavy snow. So this **** won't stick very easy.

 

[Trice]

I thought we were supposed to have precipitation in some form all night, but this looks like it's a couple hours away from ending.
