It's been great. February is usually the month I start getting major cabin fever, this year I've been active outside more than half the days. I'll take this every February.
Incredible temperature swing coming to Eastern Iowa tomorrow

So what's your point here? That we shouldn't be allowed to do these things? Only the elites who will always find a way to work around restrictions should?
Not if you are big into ice fishing, snow mobiling, cross country skiing, outdoor skating/hockey (build your own backyard rink or have access to a pond/lake), etc.
I am not too upset that I have already gotten in 3 rounds of golf and it's not even March. I do wish we had a nice, long, deep, sustained winter of 15-25 degree weather with just enough snow to make it scenic. I like winter and look forward to the next mini ice age.
67 degrees currently in CR, 59 in Ames, 40 in Fort Dodge, 30 in Storm Lake, 28 in Sioux City.
Ugh...
Ugh...
I’ve also enjoyed the warmer weather but I know a few people that are bummed they only got to go ice fishing a handful of times.
I also worry about how dry it will be this summer when it’s already dried up in February, don’t think that’s going to end well.
Living by a timber with lots of deer and other critters I’m a little concerned how many ticks are going to be on my dogs and around the house, having a 6 month old also makes that a bit more concerning.
Hail is going to be absurd with these cells. Sucks for whoever is in line. Tornados are not the issue today. Glad my hotel has a covered garage.
Muskie weather bubble for the win, on this particular watch.
Turbulence was crap on my flight/s west today.
We got rocked.
Cedar Rapids? Between Mt trashmore and it being oat day, no wonder God is pissedTomorrow Cedar Rapids is forecast to have a high of 69 and a low of 12.
Still pales in comparison to the record:
Extreme Short-Duration Temperature Changes in the U.S.
The U.S. winter of 2017-18 was one of wild temperature variations, bringing to mind some of the most dramatic historical extremes of rapid temperature change in U.S. history.www.wunderground.com
Bumpiest winter season I think I ever remember. Miserable flying.
Good to know the pros think the same thing.
I thought i was just having bad luck.
I had a coworker flying a regional into denver today. Guy it said about 30 mins of it were true hell.
Ya Denver was really bad at the lower altitudes. Typical

Just started on a bad head cold/sinuses to welcome this one day freeze, too.

The wind this morning is just relentless, feels like a hole blew open in the sky.

Monday after work was golfing in 70+ degree weather. Tuesday after work was driving to hockey practice in a snowstorm and single digit weather. Best part of all this, the golf course is taking tee times for the weekend starting Friday as the temps will be back near the 70s.
Incredible that it was above 70 when I was done with work yesterday, and 6 when I went to work this morning. Busted out the warmest comforters because we knew the drop would be difficult for the thermostat to adjust to. Wasn’t as noticeable in the house as I thought it would be. But the electronic display in my car didn’t like it at first. Took longer to boot on than normal. Even in colder weather.
