But to the North

and are usually the last thing you should look for when the weather gets bad

Not looking forward to Iowa weather today.
Its actually sunny and nice right now, but temps are rising way to quick. There's going to be an outbreak by 3

You want weather?

Bueh and my area (west Kansas) has received less rain than Phoenix, Arizona the past 4 years.

Pure. ****ing. Insanity.

March going out like a lion

We are right on the edge of the discussion. It sounds like the worst weather will be south and east of us, over NE MO and central/southern IL.

I guess this is just my regular "welcome to spring in Iowa. **** you" reminder.

Depending on where you live, the timing is going to be critical. Conditions suggest that not only will these storms be strong, they'll be fast. They're predicting the storms could roll through at 50-60mph, which means they won't stick around long.

Stay safe y'all.
