  1. Still working 5-6 days a week, with over 2000 employees where I work. There are personnel taking everyones temps upon arrival everyday, but fever may not show up until other symptoms arise, which would be too late. I pretty much plan on getting it at some point over the next month or two. If I don't that's great. If so, hopefully I'll kick it's ass and move on. Outside of work I just do my best to minimize exposure to others as much as possible.
  2. Looks like mid 60s Thu & Fri here, and then 70s Mon & Tue. This time next week I suspect the leaves will be creeping out of their swollen buds.
  3. Yep I've been out getting all the equipment ready. Prob be cutting grass in about 8-14 days. Ready, set, mow, yo!
  4. DVN just confirmed a brief EF-1 about 12 miles east-southeast of here, south of Prophetstown. Happened well after sunset so I didn't miss anything.
  5. Getting frequent 40-45mph gusts. MLI hit 49mph earlier. The landscape has dramatically greened up after all the rain, and fixed nitrogen from the lightning. Trees have swelled buds. Won't be long before leaves start popping out.
  6. Over 3.5" of rain since late last evening. There's standing water everywhere, even 12+hrs after the rains mostly shut off. Won't take much to get us up over the 4" mark if we get any kind of action later on. From 3.3" snow 6 days ago, to a flash flood event, and now a PDS tor watch.
  7. If I was out I'd wanna be on that cell coming up towards Quincy. Winds nicely backed ahead of it, and moisture levels in that area are pretty nice.
  8. 3.18" now. The end is in sight though, as the back-building of this particular band has finally crapped the bed.
  9. Oh yeah, well on our way. Now over 2.6", with almost an inch since midnight. Torrential rain falling right now, so we'll blow by 3" in the next 10-15mins. Lots of flash flooding going on from here down into the QC. EDIT: Just ran downstairs to check the basement, since this is the first very heavy rain event in the new house. So far so good.
  10. 1.5" of rain in the past 40 minutes. Still dumping, and now under a flash flood warning lol. Sure is nice to hear the constant rumble of thunder. Some things just never get old.
  11. Yeah was just gonna post about that. Very nice light show atm. Very heavy rains moving in.
  12. First thunder of the year a bit ago. Had a brief, but nice downpour roll through and quickly dropped 0.12" of rain. Tiny hail core just missed southeast with what was probably peas.
  13. Pretty amazing that just 5 days ago we were enjoying a 3" snow event, and now we're looking at a decent severe setup for tomorrow. Gotta love March.
  14. Not to get off topic but the parent sup that spawned the infamous Fairdale tor had nice rotation not too long after it initiated, and was cranking quite nicely aloft before it dropped the tor out near Ashton. The main sup that we chased that day started way out by Ottumwa, and followed it up to near Clinton when it finally produced.
  15. Oh no, does that mean the model performance hasn't hit rock bottom yet? lol
  16. Think Broyles half-assed it per usual. Based on model data last eve the threat should have been much further north in coverage. Later model data could change that, but based off the data he should have been looking at the threat area was poorly outlined.
  17. Aaaaaaand there it goes. Just like that, the end of winter 2019/2020. Around halfway through the vid the low clouds change direction about 180 degrees.
  18. Despite temps not much above freezing, and a solid overcast the snow is already mostly gone. The ol' sun angle doing work.
  19. Let's hope so. Over 3" now, and still dumping. Hard to believe I was wondering if we'd get anything to stick at all back around 5pm. Here's 8hrs of time lapse condensed to under a minute, from about 1pm to 8pm. Have added a few inches since this vid ended. Should have switched it over to night lapse mode to keep it going.
  20. 2.8", still snowing nicely. Very nice rally the past 3hrs
  21. After a very slow start (4hrs of non-accumulating snow) it has made up for it in a hurry. About 1.5" now, and still coming down moderately.
