  1. Word has it the folks at the Farmer's Almanac have taken over full duty in GFS programming and product development.
  2. Finished with a lowly 1.5" so up to 17.5" now.
  3. Snowing hard here, and closing in on an inch or so. Dry slot already almost here which will give us a 3-5hr break with nothing. May pick up another inch with the daybreak wave of wussy snows. Looks like finishing 21/22 winter below 20" is a lock.
  4. lol thanks. I like that color palette.
  5. In sort of a mini-screw zone (perfect for this winter) with snow streaking up northwest and east of us. Still waiting on the first flake. Thank god this pos winter is almost finished.
  6. DVN confirmed 3 birdfart naders so far. The Des Moines office has confirmed 3 so far, including an EF-3, but they will be adding many more in coming days.
  7. Liowa is trying to lose it's rep in the chase community between the Dec event and yesterday's.
  8. Looks like the NAMs stopped trolling as badly as they were. Looks like a nice little 2-3" of temporary cover on the way for the QCA.
  9. Finished with 0.25" rain, but guessing we probably got a few tenths more than that since we had sideways rain for several minutes with the high winds.
  10. It's pretty fortunate such a widespread high wind event hit while the trees are still bare.
  11. That's okay, I said we'd be getting Iowa sloppy seconds a few days ago lol.
  12. Rockford ASOS hit 81mph awhile ago, and Sugar grove 72mph.
  13. Well that was impressive to say the least. Easily the best storm since the derecho in '20. Can't tell for sure how high they got due to heavy rain and it being night, but weather station 5ft off the ground hit 64mph, so guessing we had 70+mph winds. The roar reminded me of the derecho. Wow.
  14. Kind of weird being under a tornado warning when it's only 58 degrees outside lol. Phone and city nader sirens have been going off. Storm is almost here.
  15. Nice sups out in IA today. The ones that are warned down by Lamoni look pretty sweet as well, too bad they're far from the 88D sites though.
  16. New record high today at MLI of 70, hit 69 here. Some nice CGs to the northwest a bit ago from these elevated cells moving through.
  17. Nice. Haven't had a drop yet here, but the tradeoff is it's warmed up nicely with the sun mixed in. Up to 68 now, MLI prob at 70 by now. Not expecting a whole lot of QPF this evening since the precip will be hauling pretty quickly, but hopefully can squeeze out some thunder and a good downpour.
  18. Looks like a 2-3" event since it will fall at night. Most of it will be toast by end of day Tuesday.
  19. Already 63 here just after 11am, MLI at 66. Should easily make the low 70s a bit later on.
  20. Been using 93 the past few years (tuned Ecoboost F-150), but I took the tune out and will be using 87 until the prices come back down. Wouldn't have messed with it, but figured the prices will go up even more for awhile, unfortunately.
  21. Wind advisory criteria looks possible over northern IL Sat evening ahead of the incoming CF. Many models show gusts over 40mph. 3km NAM has 50-60kts at the top of the mixed layer immediately behind the front over the DVN cwa later Sat evening, so 50mph gusts behind the front look possible as well.
  22. RGEM says get the suntan oil ready cause we're heading to the pool on Saturday.
