Imagine WOI pulling accurate duty tonight after being stripped of their civic duty back when Terry "controlled" Iowa. What a ****.

Shelby county there is one near Earling.

 

[Sparkplug]

South of Norwalk and no power. A little wind but nothing that would down a power line.

Going to be a long night

 

[cmjh10]

Mason City, Clear Lake, and SW getting hammered.

Chris with KCCI is an absolute embarrassment. I was switching back between the 3 channels and KCCI is a joke. WOI and WHO were great.

Guessing Chris is stumbling through taking about how rare of event this is and this isn’t normal while Jason or whoever is with him struggles to pull up a map.

Kcci has become bottom tier for central Iowa news.

 

[CychiatricWard]

What’s the word on the metro. Potential for hail and whatnot still or is it more of a western and northern thing?

I was hoping darkness would take away some instability, but the temperature has actually gone up 4 degrees in the last hour in Ames

Any confirmed rain amounts? That front seems to be moving SLOW and the training has got to be brutal.

Yes, I just noticed that when I shut our back door and looked at the thermometer. Warmer outside than indoors.

I noticed how red the sky was this morning, too. Red sky in the morning and all that.

Yep. When I walked out of work this afternoon I had the same "uh oh" feeling that I had in the morning back in December. The air just feels different.

 

[isufbcurt]

is the line that is between Omaha and DM looking dangerous?
