Yeah F this. Sounds like this will be the last week of it thankfully.
But seriously F everything right now.

It has killed the plans I had for this week. Just...maddening.
But yeah, winter's last gasp hopefully. This time next week should be in the 60's or warmer.

My kids had an outdoor track meet a few years ago, in April, where they were getting snowed on during the meet. They had an indoor meet the first weekend of April, I believe at Grinnell, where we drove home in blizzard conditions. That was the year my older son hit a cow on the way home from the meet (he had driven there from college and was coming home for the weekend)
Lived in the Midwest my whole life, Iowa and then moved to Illinois.
Last summer we moved to San Antonio for my wife’s job and haven’t regretted it once. It doesn’t really snow here, maybe a flurry but that’s rare. We aren’t in Tornado Alley either so that’s nice. I haven’t missed snow once and I live that I can pretty much wear shorts year round.

Why do you people care? You’re supposed to be shut up in your house.
just saw that. 4-8” in southern Iowa.
it won’t last though, mid-60’s next week
here comes Mr. Midwest Tough Guy
Damn straight. I don’t want these southern belles thinking we’re weak!
I was suprised to wake up to snow here in Ankeny. Not as much as you got but enough to be depressing. Oh and since this is HROT and I need to say something assholey, 4 foot chain link fence brah? If you were going non-privacy I would have expected 6 wrought iron with the little spikes on top to stab any poors trying to scale it.Ridiculous
Do you even Hurricane, bro?
I think y’all are tough. One, you live in Iowa. The single most pointless state after Mississippi. Two, I’m looking at the backyard with green grass and 70’s. You enjoy your white stuff. We will enjoy our white stuff with hookers.
It has been established that on average, the weather is better in Florida from mid October through April. Iowa wins May through mid October. Just make sure the beaches are back open once it gets cold and we come to vacation and clog up your roads.
Even Mother Nature trying to rewind to January for a redo.
The low temp here early this morning was 77. Glad I have AC.
I could not live in fla year round if it wasn’t for AC. July-August is swamp ass city.
Between this and the white claws, are you sure you're not actually a woman?

I will add that the cold weather does a good job of keeping hobos away and for the most part the ones we have are semi-industrious. They can just sleep on benches down there 365 days a year. Here if they want to survive winter they set up camps with tents and fires.
Our hobos are in Gainesville. I don’t have hobos near my palatial mansion.
I’d take that everyday than live one more day working outside in negative temps. JMO
Talked to my dad on the phone the other day and he said it snowed.
Meanwhile I went for a walk yesterday and my shoulders got pretty crispy. The last 3-4 weeks of barely going outside really took the tan away.

Just need decent weather next weekend (april 24th), moving to townhouse in Ankeny. 3 years back when I moved to my current apartment it rained all day, nothing more miserable to move in rainy weather like that.
Sounds like the type of place that has a bowl of condoms at the door. Either way, I'll be there.
Love me some snow. Last one of the year so I'm going to enjoy it. It'll be 70 a week from today then the great weather is back in full force.
Iowa - snow from Halloween to Easter...
Pros: Makes it a lot easier to spread the lawn fertilizer, I can see where I've already been...
Cons: Makes it harder to find my golf ball...

Snowed in 7 days without power. We all shared the master bedroom which had a gas heater that did not require an electric blower. During the day we were in the kitchen which had a gas stove which we ran with the door open.
Buried everything from the fridge and freezer in snow banks.
It sucked.
