Too warm for much snow in eastern Iowa

Give it time.

 

[ClonesTwenty1]

Rain or snow?

Snow. Looks like we have like 4 inches already just by sight

 

[garn91]

Thank you Lord for the much needed moisture!

 

[NWICY]

Snow up by Humboldt.

 

[NWICY]

First 3 inches of the year coming!

As long as the wife/GF is happy that's what counts.

Thank you Lord for the much needed moisture!

If we get the moisture we did last summer, the flooding will be nasty. Reason it wasn’t worse is that we were at least dry going into it.

Sounds more like a you problem

Ouch

Since the door was left wide open, I was going to reply with something similar and thought "no, I'm above that". But I'm really not and that was funny!

Trying to watch the Olympics, what is this tape running across the screen? Delay after delay, and cancel this and that? No snow up here by Algona.

Algona is cancelling stuff? You guys are getting soft.

Nice downpour just moved through CR,

 

[ClonerJams]

Round 1 of snowblowing done. I would guess just under 4 inches so far, wet heavy crap.

 

[ISUAgronomist]

Spent the afternoon reseeding the acreage after combination of late dry weather and armyworms last fall did a number on the grass. Perfect timing for a deep blanket of snow!

Tow bans in central Iowa. Roads 100 percent snow and ice covered.

Algona got no snow. Sounds like places south of us stole our snow. Thank you for helping us out.

Yeah, my husband had to work tonight, and he said the roads were really bad. If he thinks it is bad, then there is no world in which most folks should be out there driving.

 

[Kinch]

Hwy 69 south of Ames looks awful.

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

When did snow start in Ames? Everytime I looked outside Stark nothing was falling.
