The old saying is if one doesn't like the weather in Iowa just wait a few days.
We're not in the part of Iowa that's under a watch but my sister is down in Waukee.
Over the past couple weeks Iowa has been getting hit with a whole shitload of snow. Last week the Dubuque area received just over a foot of snow. And they've been getting really hammered the past few hours with eastern Iowa experiencing blizzard conditions.
Up here in the Twin Cities we mostly missed out on the worst of it, with the heavier stuff all down in Iowa and southern Minnesota. Right now it looks like the Metro is going to get one to three inches of snow between tonight an
"When people ask you what happened here, tell them that the North Remembers. Tell them winter came for house Minnesota."
I wonder if where I live in the Twins will get the six inches the NWS said we might get tonight. Regardless it looks like Mother Nature decided to play catchup.
Dubuque got a bit more snow than I expected today.
There's a winter storm warning until 6pm this evening.
Of course we're getting to the point in the year whatever does fall doesn't stay too long. It's supposed to be up in the 40s for several days starting this weekend.
Ugh. Looks like we're going to get slammed this weekend with multiple snow events.
I was hoping we'd get out of the winter season without having any more snow but I guess that won't be the case.
