I thinks we need to turn on the big fans again. 

[Dotch]

The big fans around here have been running full bore recently...

[glenn57]

  new update i just seen.......up north 6-17 inches

around here 4-6.

[dutchboy]

Can you narrow down both 6-17" and where "up North" starts & ends?   

[glenn57]

Spring lake and north to IF!!

[KEN W]

We have been on the edge on the last couple. This time we are supposed to be in the bullseye.....1to 2 FEET.

[Dotch]

Conflicting forecasts for here depending on whose forecasts one looks at. NWS is calling for .2" - .5" of rain Tues. & Wed. with 50 mph wind gusts Wed. & Wed. nite. Channel 5 this morning was saying 1" - 2" of rain for us. As long as we stay out of the snow and don't get any of the treatment that they got recently around Cedar Rapids & IA City, I'm OK with it.

[LPS]

The TV just showed 11.8 for us and Accuweather has us in the 12-18 area. 

[mike89]

still talking 5 to 10 inches here...   and very windy...

If that happens we will lose power. The stuff we got yesterday is clinging to the tree branches and that was less than 2" here.

[Dotch]

Definitely appears to be going north this time. I get notifications for Flanders in Ontario. Looks like 25 cm there so ~ 10". Prolly no spring trip that direction this year. 

[LPS]

They are also saying 55-60 mph winds Dutch.  That's not good. I told the wife they better not make them go to work on Wed. 

[Gunner55]

  TWC's site is sayin 8" in the next 48 hours up at the lake now, winds as high as 50 too. 

[Dotch]

You guys get all the good storms...

[glenn57]

Can't go anyway so don't care!

[dutchboy]

Dotch, I got a spare bedroom. Come on up and you to can be apart of the storm.   

[mike89]

one word; exlax!!! 
 
   

[LPS]

Better start those stool softeners.   

[Bobberineyes]

Better start those stool softeners.   

You'd think that stuff he calls beer would do just fine in that area...

[LPS]

Right after the snow storm our temps turn to the 50's.  It will be wet as heck for awhile melting that snow.

Anybody concerned about flooding again this year?

[Gunner55]

Upped ours at the lake to 9" in the next 48 hours now & the 10 day says 40 or < 'til Saturday. Look out after that though, 50-60 with rain by the following weekend.

[LPS]

They just upped ours to 14 and Bemidji to 15"

  yea its gonna be rel fun keeping a white dog clean!!!!!!11

[mike89]

[Scenic]

They just upped ours to 14 and Bemidji to 15"

Not sure which one to believe.   One says 15 and one says 3-5 now for today and 1-3 tonight....  either way not a lot to do except clean it up.   Water should be running hard next week with the higher temps.

after seeing the extended forecast.........thats a big yes. but where i am located the city of Cold Spring will be toast before i get flooded!!!! but still what a cluster fart!!!!!

[Scenic]

On the positive side around here it should bring the lake levels up closer to where they should be.
