PSA:
The NWS always appreciates observations, especially detailed observations that everyone on here is capable of giving. That can be done thru Twitter, as they often set up a feed for that, or the mPing app. That can include final snowfall amounts, when the snow starts/stops, precip type, dew point, etc
This helps them with short term forecasts as well as future forecasts as they can learn from them. A few years ago they had a freezing rain advisory for Leavenworth, but I notified
I would be good with this. At my soccer game last week, someone commented that the fields felt like it was July.
If we have another summer like last summer in terms of how dry it got (and how hard the fields got) I will probably hang up my cleats. I'm not going to risk another knee injury.
So far this morning, .09" in the rain bucket, and it feels like early spring or late fall out there with a temp of 48. Normally I might gripe about it, but I'll take it as dry as it has been.
We have the Ski to Sea race this Sunday up here in Bellingham, and hopefully we get some decent weather for it. It's my first time participating in about 12 years.
A strong line of storms was approaching Cedar Rapids this morning, but it weakened as it moved through. I got about 0.33" of rain out of it. Another line of storms is moving into central Iowa, which may affect the afternoon/evening severe chance.
