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
The next two systems, Saturday and Tuesday, appear to be poorly timed for eastern Iowa. Models show the good rain and storms to the west, but weakening as they move in here. After that, the flow changes and quiets down.
I thought the rain had ended last evening, but more showers (a narrow band) popped up and trained over my area. Ended up with 2.28" total rainfall yesterday. The evening showers actually had the highest rain rates of the day. It's getting soggy, and the local river is actually flooding a little for the first time in probably a couple years!
