    We've had two snow events already, totaling 3.2". However, both occurred very late at night/early morning, so I've still barely seen any snow actually fall.

    Up to 7.5" of snow fell west of Ottumwa. That means there have been two 7+" snowstorms to my south in November. I assume that's pretty rare.

    That sneaky band of snow across southern Iowa today has dropped 4-7" from Ottumwa to a couple counties west of there. This morning the nws was only talking about less than an inch falling in that area.

    I received 2.7 inches overnight. The ratio is about 9 to 1, so it's a moderately wet snow. That puts my November total at 3.2 inches.

    It'll be interesting to see what the nws and local mets do. This morning they all basically said, "Nothing to see here", for the corridor through Cedar Rapids.

    13 here this morning.

    I picked up a half inch on the grass and deck. The pavement is wet.

    The GFS is no longer on board, having just shifted west.

    12z Euro still showing a narrow swath of decent snow through Iowa from the clipper on Friday.
  10. hawkeye_wx
    It's the new GFS.
  11. hawkeye_wx
    My rain total from the current system is 1.33".

    As cool as it would be to get dumped on in early November, I need a couple weeks to collect the neighbor's oak leaves for my garden.
  13. hawkeye_wx
    The 12z euro is even better than that GFS map above.

    Frankly, there haven't been too many memorable snowstorms here in Cedar Rapids. I barely remember any before this decade. I've never measured a foot.

    The western edge of the clouds is from Waterloo to the Quad Cities, and that's where the highest gusts have been so far. Waterloo: 52 mph Cedar Rapids: 49 mph Iowa City: 53 mph Davenport: 49 mph

    There are some nice reds in my neighborhood, but they're dropping quickly. There is a nice, big, red maple outside of my bedroom window that has perhaps 1/4 of its leaves remaining.

    Anyone know what kind of building code they have in the Marianas?

    59 mph gust reported in Iowa City.
  19. hawkeye_wx
    So far, much of eastern Iowa is seeing gusts to the mid 40s. There are a couple 55+ reports from Waterloo to Mason City.

    We had our first frost this morning.
  21. hawkeye_wx
    I only saw a few flurries last night. Our temperature is, again, lagging behind what the models suggested. We are just now nearing 32 for the first time this season. I'm hoping the brief time near freezing will limit the plant damage.
  22. hawkeye_wx
    I should get my first freeze tomorrow morning. However, the precip part of this system is passing north and south.
  23. hawkeye_wx
    3-5 inches of snow has fallen in the Lincoln-Omaha area.
  24. hawkeye_wx
    Omaha and Lincoln are getting pretty good snow this morning. The NWS just upped Omaha to an advisory.
  25. hawkeye_wx
    Wow, that is spectacular!
