Probably just because they are POd at sitting in an airport. We were supposed to fly out this morning but moved our flight to Sunday to get in front of the slow reacting people.
Same here. I like winter activities so I'm not happy about that.
I just like to actually be able to DO the winter activities so like 15-30 is great.

I would hate being a power consumer in Texas that system is so screwed up. I'll take my local REC every time.

Prairie Energy, we've always had good luck with both the lights staying on and content with the rates compared to friends on Mid America energy.
They need to demand the Keystone XL pipeline re-open yesterday! Maybe open up a wellhead or two.Texas power prices spike more than 400% in one day amid bomb cyclone

Last Friday Hwy 151 from Madison to Dubuque was deceivingly bad. There's lots of downhill curves and the wind was tunneled through a lot of spots of patchy snow.
There was a few cars in the ditch and I could tell it was serious when nearly every single driver was taking it slow; there's usually a few jackwagons who tailgate anyone like that's any safer.
That's a nice drive most the yr but I could see it being a bugger with snow, wind, icy spots etc...
Yeah it's usually super smooth.
The weather was similar on Hwy 20 from Dubuque to Manchester but not nearly as treacherous since it's essentially a straight line.
From what I've read from IDOT and Story County Emergency Management, they're going to evaluate at daylight and may or may not put the plows back out. Story County secondary roads may not go out until tomorrow afternoon, after pulling the plows earlier today.
