My mom said today that her trees are starting to act like spring is coming. Both her lilacs and her sugar maples look like they do before they start to bud out. Interesting since it hasn't been a warm February or anything.

March came in like a lamb. Sounds the lion part of March leaving might take until April 10th or so.
That would be absolutely awesome to see (right before you took a helicopter the hell out of there)
That roof is worrying me.
Question, do you see many single stage snowblowers?

GFS for the better part of a week had been forecasting another load of snow for S. Dakota, Minny and Northern Iowa.
The NWS service offices in this area are again starting to pick up on it. It this pans out those areas may have snow on the ground Memorial Day.

Increased risk of significant flooding, sure. Snow on the ground well into May, very doubtful. It gets very hard to keep temperatures suppressed that far south for sustained periods of time, even with snowpack, once you start pushing into April. The snow goes rapidly with a few long, sunny days in the mid 50's and lows that don't dip below freezing.
I know. Just being absurd with what might be an absurd amount of snow on the ground.
Ok weather folks, need input on how to handle travel later this week. We are supposed to be flying out of MSP very late on Friday to head to Bozeman/Big Sky and the forecast is leaving me feeling 
. We have to drive DSM at some point, original plan was to drive Friday morning and kill time in the area until heading to the airport. What are the odds we get out on Friday?

So they're saying heavy snow for all of the northern 2/3's of Iowa on March 9-10? Great, just great.
6-10" for my area is the current prediction. Complete pain in the ass, especially as we have nothing but piles and shaded/fenceline snow left
