    There might be a spin-up along the line just south of Cyclone. Cyclone is getting hit hard by heavy rain, hail, and wind.

    69 mph wind gust at the Cedar Rapids airport, 70 mph in Hiawatha. I could hear the roaring wind coming. The line was weakening as it moved through, but we still managed to get about a 60 mph gust. That's it for me today. Most of the action went around me.

    The tornado signature is back on the cell that passed nw of Iowa City. It's approaching Mt. Vernon, east of Cedar Rapids.

    The tornadic cell near Iowa City has inhaled the trailing storm, so the great-looking structure is fading.

    Another severe storm has surged northeast and has nearly caught the tornadic cell in Iowa.

    Iowa City is up next for the Iowa tornado. It currently looks like all the cells will pass southeast and northwest of Cedar Rapids.

    Ottumwa is under the gun from a rotating supercell.

    DVN is most concerned with the lead wave tracking from south of KC to northern Illinois.

    Hmmm..... The HRRR has mid 70s and storms forming east of Cedar Rapids. The 3k NAM has low 60s and storms forming near Des Moines.

    The 12z HRRR has pushed nearly all of the action east of Cedar Rapids tomorrow. Northern Illinois looks like a fun spot.

    Now this is what I'm looking for... 60s and widespread thunderstorms. Time for the snowstorms to vamoose.

    Up to 9 inches of snow has fallen in the western Iowa weenie band this morning. These late March systems are producing very heavy banding.
  13. hawkeye_wx
    Jesus Christ..... 16 and 17 inch reports are coming in from nw Illinois. These locations must have received 4+"/hr rates.
  14. hawkeye_wx
    Wow, 12.5 inches southeast of Dubuque!!!!
  15. hawkeye_wx
    10" report now north of the Quad Cities.
  16. hawkeye_wx
    Milwaukee NWS's snow map, last night, had Madison getting about 3 inches. Surprise!
  17. hawkeye_wx
    9 inches has fallen northwest of the Quad Cities. Iowa City got 4 inches. I did not get a flake.

    Take all this shit to the banter thread. The trend across all models this morning is to fade back east with the heavy snow band. Southeast Wisconsin looks like a pretty good spot.

    A band of 2-4 inches of snow fell across northern Iowa overnight... definite over-performer.

    12z Euro Of course, cut the snow totals in half due to lousy ratios and warm ground.
  21. hawkeye_wx
    Most models are now showing a strengthening low cutting into the lakes Friday night into Saturday, with a burst of snow from southeast Iowa into Wisconsin.
  22. hawkeye_wx
    Today I received 0.20" of rain, followed by 0.7" of snow. The northwest wind is currently howling. The wind chill should be close to zero by morning.

    When I see this photo, the movie "Runaway Train" instantly pops into my head.

    As models predicted, much of the central Iowa snow dried up as it moved into eastern Iowa. I finished with 1.1 inches.
  25. hawkeye_wx
    My storm total snow is 4.0". My prediction was 3", so I'm pretty satisfied. The snow compacted a bit over 13 hours, so I could have measured a bit more if I had cleaned my snow board earlier this evening, before the final bands.
