Off topic, but have been a member of this forum since 2014 and rarely miss a post but also rarely offer up a comment. Just wondering if it isn't time to consider splitting this west or east "of the rockies" group into a Great Plains and Great Lakes group, for those east of the Rockies. So often, the Cornhuskers take over a post in which a storm is hitting them, but not impacting east of the Mississippi. Conversely, storms that track through WI/IL/MI/IN don't always have impact in the Plains states and those living within 10 hours of Chicago take over a post. It's a BIG area that the jet stream impacts very differently - I always enjoy the information and discussion that Tom provides here on the forum, but would like to see it split back up again into separate boards for the Great Plains and Great Lakes. Just my two cents. For this current storm that is blowing hard through NB and working across IA and into WI, its a solid one - enjoy it, but go ez on your backs when digging out.
