I was busy at work and completely forgot my selection time this morning at 9:15, remembered around 13:30, and quickly logged on to pick. Back in "new" C3, we were old C4 for 8-10 seasons. It will be interesting to see that reconfigured (again), as it was all torn up in the spring. Many comments were made last year about the shoddy job they did on that resurface, guess I'd missed that it was temporary. The map makes it look like the ditch between the halves of C3 will be gone?
That is correct

At least until the next flood...o_O

With so much rain in northern Iowa last week, as the excess water moves south, is any of it expected to reach Ames between JTS and Hilton?

The Skunk and Ioway (formerly Squaw) watershed doesn't really extend that far north. Anything north or west of Webster City isn't a concern, and the rain was much farther north and west than that.

Different watershed.
Most of the water from Clay and Dickenson Counties will end up in the Des Moines River, Fort Dodge is expecting some flooding. Boone County after that and then into Saylorville Lake

Clay/Dickinson goes to Missouri via Little Sioux.
Emmet/Palo Alto to Des Moines.

Not exactly sure.
If the map is wrong, then a bunch of state agencies need to be notified.

The blue earth river takes all my farms water. I can look at the drainage maps for Winnebago county. The NW and NC portion of that county goes west and then north and is part of the dam break in Mankato.

Ummm.... this is a thread for parking selection for football. I think you guys should jump over to the weather thread.

I know I should know this, but will A1 and A2 combine into the new A3? And more importantly, will A3 all be the "head in parking"? I saw A1 currently plowed under, but A2 is still in the original diagonal configuration.

They haven’t started this work yet but it will all be 90 degree parking. A4 & A5 now have parking and “drive lane” lines painted.
I’m assuming that the combined A3 work will begin as soon as they pave Alumni Dr off of Jack Trice way so they can shift the Alumni Center parking to A4 while A3 is completed.
