    It's a spectacular day across Iowa... mid 60s with light wind.

    We dropped into the 30s again this morning. Tonight is finally the last cold night before Mother Nature switches us to a genuine late-spring pattern.

    Still 8 degrees below avg today, but MUCH better than yesterday.
  5. hawkeye_wx
    We're stuck in the mid 40s today with thick clouds and wind. Yuck.
  6. hawkeye_wx
    We ended up with only 0.40" of rain out of this system, a pretty big bust.

    Models have 2-3" of rain falling across Iowa this week. It has been a darn good weekend.

    My April precip total is 3.77", nowhere close to what Cyclone received. We had plenty of rainy days, but we received mostly light to moderate rain. Much of the thunderstorm action remained south and east.

    While I've casually followed the Mississippi flooding, I kinda forget about it because the rivers just to the west, around here, are not high at all. I just went down to Iowa City and the Iowa River/Coralville Reservoir are actually rather low. All the recent heavy rain has been from here south, with not much up in northern Iowa where all of our rivers begin.

    I picked up 0.75" of rain overnight. 1.50-2.00+" fell along and south of I-80. Cyclone is sailing past 2".

    It didn't get too cold over here. My forecasted low was 27, but the nearest station in the city only hit 31. The snowier spots in northeast Iowa hit the mid to upper 20s.

    It's just about done over here. I picked up 0.3" of sleet/snow, which boosts my final(let's hope) season total to 50.2", only the second 50" season since I began keeping track in '07-'08.

    There's a nice burst of snow passing through Cedar Rapids at the moment. This is only the second time I've seen snow since February.
  14. hawkeye_wx
    I'm seeing periods of moderate to heavy sleet over here.

    Dubuque has switched to mod/heavy snow.
  16. hawkeye_wx
    But also, the low is a couple mb weaker and the snow amounts are down.
  17. hawkeye_wx
    As Natester stated, the end result is close to other models... snow band from Dubuque to Chicago, about 0.75" of precip in Cedar Rapids(probably enough mix/snow to coat the grass).
  18. hawkeye_wx
    I still need 0.1" of snow to reach 50" for the season.
  19. hawkeye_wx
    I'm glad the heavy snow band is going to miss north. A lot of perennials in the garden have some good size already and I don't want them smashed. I wouldn't mind some flakes, though.

    A hail core passed just south of Cedar Rapids. I received a bit of heavy rain, but no hail.
  22. hawkeye_wx
    There have been several nickel-size hail reports so far. Cedar Rapids was just put in a warning for the cell approaching from the sw.

    A light storm moved through here this evening. Radar showed a decent red cell, but it was kinda meh. I picked up 0.28" of rain. It has been generally boring since the snow season came to a screeching halt in February, so I'll take what I can get.
  24. hawkeye_wx
    Congrats on the storm, everyone. The photos are great. I was happy to be able to watch The Masters and not have to be distracted by heavy snow and then have to clean it up.

    Princeton spotter is reporting 8 inches. DVN way under-forecasted this storm. The morning discussion had 1-2" in Princeton.
