Hawkeye Posted February 25, 2018 Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 A spotter in Estherville, IA is reporting 6 inches.

St Paul Storm Posted February 25, 2018 Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 How much do you guys got up there so far? Radar trends look great...still about a couple more hours of heavy stuff.I have about 3” or so as of 20 min ago. This band to the west has some higher reflectivity on radar. Maybe some weak instability. 6” is definitely in play. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

September, 1864: The Union soldiers burned Atlanta; but I assure you they took no pleasure in their task...they were forced to it; by a man they hated more than they could ever hate the Rebels; an ugly, sullen, unbelievably brutal man named William Tecumseh Sherman. It was Sherman himself who started the awful fires; the fires that burned that great citadel of grace & beauty... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawkeye Posted February 25, 2018 Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 Another 0.28" of rain, here, adding to an already wet month. Again, I'm really looking forward to some ground-thawing the next few days so some of this water can soak in and the big puddle on my patio can drain.

No place left to put much snow with the piles from January. Your blower looks very much like mine when I lived in NMI. In Feb of '94, the pile where my drive met the street was so high, I had to fully open my chute and hope the machine would throw it high enough to land on top. I remember the pile was still 7 feet high in early April when my yard was already bare.
