  1. Could be quite a few severe wind reports over here in the DVN cwa with this. Lots of wind right off the deck so wouldn't take much to get severe gusts. With so much shear and vorticity with this system wouldn't be surprised to see a few DVN one scan wonder spinups along the advancing squall line.
  2. Starting to think we have a decent chance at 80 on Friday with intense southerly flow ahead of the storm system.
  3. Saw first robins this morning. 60s today, 70 tomorrow, and deep into the 70s Thu & Fri. Huge windbag coming Fri/Sat.
  4. I'll never forget the day I came home from school and they had swapped over to the purple radar that had the loop and more reflectivity levels. Before that it was just the lowly 6 level stationary blue radar. Having a looping local radar pop up for u 6 times an hour felt like winning the lottery back then lol
  5. MLI with only 0.1" today lol. Seasonal total up to 6.8". Any snow that fell here today was gone by the time I got home. Guess I call it an inch but who knows lol. At work it barely stuck at all, as it was mostly a white rain with intermittent bursts of bigger flakes.
  6. Good chance at 70 3 days in a row here, from Mon-Wed. After today's nuisance snowfall departs don't see any more snow in the next 10+ days.
  7. Light rain/snow mix here at the moment.
  8. Models have bumped the main snow swath north in the DVN area for tonight/tomorrow. Looking more like a 1" type event for this area, and probably a DAB or DAB+ at MLI. Cedar Rapids area looks to be the jackpot in the DVN area per usual.
  9. We had teflon snow here today, non-stick. It didn't snow hard enough to overcome the wet/warm ground, so nothing measurable here, or at MLI and DVN. MLI's seasonal snowfall will remain at 6.7". Final rain total here of 1.12"
  10. Looking like 60s here Sunday and Monday, then 70s Tuesday and Wednesday.
  11. 0.93" storm total so far here. Dead calm under the surface low atm.
  12. 0.30" so far here, as the rain has been pretty light and showery. Looking like a good shot at an inch of wet slop tomorrow afternoon to go along with the 50mph winds.
  13. Two worthless DAB+ events this week will chip into the 3.1" buffer at MLI's futility chase. Kind of a shame but not surprising. Hopefully they both underperform like all other systems have this season. Biggest threat is Thu night/Fri, when 1.5-2" looks possible.
  14. Not in our sub, but pretty impressive conditions down in western TX/southeast NM. Temps near 80, with dews in the -10s producing humidity values of 2% in several locations. Also 60-70mph winds whipping up a nice dust storm.
  15. So March and probably April is doing what it's supposed to do. Why can't we get Dec-Feb to do the same? lol
  16. Looking like another day with 50+mph winds on Wednesday behind the departing storm system.
  17. Almost identical actually( MLI & DVN), both are 22 miles away as the crow flies. Temp wise this area is more similar to MLI as both here and at MLI are in the Rock River valley.
  18. The late afternoon sky had a brownish haze from all the lofted dirt from the high winds out west. Had a nice period of 50-55mph winds around these parts as well. Surprised to see a few trees species have swollen buds from the past few days of 50s and 60s. Guess the sap must already be flowing upward despite the bitter cold last week.
  19. Likely overdoing everything per usual. Cut the excitement by about 30-50% and there's the final solution if seasonal trends persist. Early guess for here is a nice soaker followed by a few wet flakes.
  20. MLI now 2 feet of snow below normal. Futility record getting more and more probable.
  21. Looking forward to the first thunder of the year next Tuesday.
  22. Was hoping that would make it here but it's crapping the bed on approach. First Iowa sloppy seconds of the year, check.
