Heard some thunder this morning but the small elevated storms bypassed. 45mph winds pushed us up to near 80 here, hit 80 at MLI.

80 tomorrow, 70s Saturday. A few storm chances. Not too shabby. EDIT: Also first 60 dewpoints of the year on Sunday.

Perhaps Broyles hacked onto Goss' profile last night.

You guys are killing DVN so far. We'll catch up though during QLCS birdfart spinup season lol.

Yeah it's bizarre for sure. Especially changing locations during the snow season. More 40mph winds today.

Really nice to see after a dry winter. Should help kick off the growing season nicely.

0.41" today, up to almost 3" for March now.

Appreciate it. Interestingly the observation location switched back and forth from the weather bureau in Davenport, to the QC airport (where MLI currently is) several times. Guessing that weather bureau ob of 2.5" is included in the seasonal total, but would have to see the rest of the data for that season from both locations. The current location of DVN is well north of the old weather bureau location (up in Mt. Joy Iowa) and didn't open until 1995.

The neighbor is outside taking down their snow fence this morning. Now we're going to get a blizzard in April.

Interesting possible omission of snowfall, but no way to know for sure. Luckily there's still a decent chance we can stay under 9.9" and beat existing questionable record anyway.

50-55mph winds from band of showers moving through the area just now. MLI hit 56mph, DVN hit 50mph. Starting to feel like we live on top of Mt. Washington lol.

Yeah, have about 10000 sticks down to pick up from the past 4 months. Been waiting for a calmer period but it seems to be very windy everyday.

Snow total at MLI ended up being 0.8", 0.5" at DVN. MLI now up to 8.2" for the season, with 1.6" futility buffer remaining. Lawns are starting to green up now with the recent rains/warmth.

Up to 8 confirmed tors by LOT now.

DVN dropping the ball not reporting final results.
