My wife did that last night too. Started a new job at UI hospital in Dec. Not worth making the trip from CR to IC last night. She should be fine tonight...maybe.

Looks like the flight in from Oklahoma City is going to try to make it again:
The Tuesday huge amount, the little bit Wed night, and Friday huge amount with high winds almost exactly what weather people said would happen.
Yep, no busts this week.
DSM doesn’t seem so bad, marginal VFR conditions and good breaking conditions on the runway, nothing that would stop the flight coming in. My guess is it depends on their ability to get to Ames from there.
That stuff is great. Last winter I found a Confluence "Monster" Oatmeal Cookie Stout, which was even better. I bought one but never saw it in stores again.

I got out the tape measure for an area protected from the wind and pretty much undisturbed … the top of my air conditioner. (Theres a cover on the top so a good base from which to measure.)
Just shy of 18 inches.
This is today in northeast Cedar Rapids, just east of Target and north of Blairs Ferry.

Two or three months ago they also had a peanut butter cup porter, I think it was. I love porters and stouts this time of year, especially with a hint of sweetness.
When I called the opening manager who comes from Des Moines seemed kind of miffed about me calling in.
I came in Tuesday and Friday when I probably had no business doing so and Friday I was only day employee to come in. Since Aug. 26 I've worked every day but Thanksgiving and Christmas day so I think I'm allowed a freaking snow day.

It was a speed limit trip from Ames to DM this morning. They should be fine.
I think we're getting close to a postponement
I want OSU to be safe, fans to be safe, but it would be nice to play late tonight/tomorrow if possible. This league is a grind and it would be nice to not squeeze a game in later.
Agreed. If we would have to reschedule, at least it would be a home game. Would rather squeeze that in than a trip to Stillwater.
