I used to plant sweet corn then realized it cost 10x what I could buy it from my classmate for who has most of the northern third grocery stores as clients.
Wondering if some of our weather pros can give some guidance on the severe weather situation for Saturday between central Iowa and Milwaukee. Traveling in that direction that day and staying overnight, wondering what we're going to encounter.
*in general* **** seems to peter out by the time it gets to Milwaukee. I'd say we generally get hit with stuff like this 6-8pm so if you are ahead or behind that timeline, that's probably a good plan.
Family west of Minneapolis have had over 5 inches since Saturday. They cannot take any more. Thankfully they have a secondary system to pump water out of their sump to secondary location...they will need it.
Wife’s uncle lives in Bloomington MN (southern suburb of MSP) and said they’ve had 18” of rain in 6 weeks. We were there in early may and it was dry as can be.
Part of I-90 in SW MN closed due to flooding.
Lot of flash flood (and regular flood) warnings in SE SD, SW MN, and NW IA last night and this morning.
