So here's how it played out in central Iowa yesterday.

2pm - Sunny Mid 60's

3pm - Clouds roll in

4pm - Light rain

5pm - Thunderstorms, cooling off

9pm - Rain changing to sleet

2am - 4 to 5 inches of snow on the ground

This is one of the craziest winters I can remember. Can't wait for it to end!:rolleyes:

cmy330go - I was at the farm outside of Des Moines all weekend. What an incredible mess of snow melt and mud! It took $10 at the car wash Sunday night before I took off for IL to get all the mud off the truck! I left before the cool down and snow on Sunday, but it was snowing in Belvidere IL this moring when I left for work. Enough of this already!

Here in NY yesterday the sun was out for a while but then it got dark for like 10 hours and the temp dropped. Then all of a sudden it was light out again when I woke up. Global warming is real folks!!!!!!!!

That sucks. I was actually considering driving down there in the next week or two just to get a little bit of warm weather. Maybe I should look elsewhere.:confused:

Don't worry, it's supposed to be back in the mid 50's tomorrow and then back up into the 60's and 70's by this weekend.

It's been snowing now for about 5 hours or so. Here's a few pics I just took. http://flickr.com/photos/bertrandclan/


Look in the March 2008 Snow set

It is going to snow another 25-35 cm here. Stores have run out of snowblowers and there is now a rash of snowblower thefts.....it even made the news.

Round two started up here in DFW. This was about five minutes ago. It was a beautiful spring day and around 65 or 70 yesterday. This is awesome.
