Goodmorning, crew! Well, that beautiful weather sure was enjoyable yesterday! Got the Monte all washed up, and then what happens? Yup, you guessed it....we are currently being hit by a snow storm and my car (freshly cleaned) is getting covered in the parking lot!

On a lighter note, my school's Robotics Team & I made it to state, so we head out to Iowa City tomorrow at 7:30 am for Inspections, Drivers' Meetings, Etc...We got some well needed practice in yesterday after school and we are going into this competition feeling pretty positive!!

Wow so it's been a straight up blizzard here for the past 45 minutes and we have 1" of snow on the ground already. Just started changing over to freezing rain within the past 10 minutes.

Dude this weather is crazy today! haha
Looks to be more snow headed your way before it all changes to rain this afternoon.

Severe Thunderstorm warning for Madison County in Iowa, not 50 miles west of there, 1 inch an hour snowfall!! The Atmosphere today is like nothing I've ever seen before!

Yeah no kidding! It's mostly rain w/slight wintry mix right now and it's coming down hard too. Actually, snow was never really in the forecast for us here today, just freezing rain and rain. Bit surprising.

Umm, i haven't looked at her today, but i'm sure she's in pretty rough shape. Probably won't wash it today, but in the near future most likely i will.

I should say thunder and lightning too. So, snow, freezing rain, rain, thunder and lightning all this morning since 10:30 am. Reports here of 1.5-2.0" of snowfall in the area between 10:30-11:30 am. Crazy.
