Where are you?
I live in Rockford.
Not sure how much but meteorologist on KIMT last night cautioned folks to take the big number with a grain of salt.
If all the precip were snow, we might get the huge numbers but with freezing drizzle and out right rain, the amount of snow accumulation might be more like 6".
I myself would like the 15"-20".

I've heard up to 12"+ for north central IA, but who really knows. Right now we have around 5" on the ground and it's sleeting/raining on and off. I just got home from a trip to perry and there is alot of ice from Humboldt south but not alot of snow yet.

I don't know for sure here in east central Iowa. Right now and into at least tomorrow we are suppose to see mostly rain and some freezing rain, 2" isn't out of the question. The river is now slated to flood. Supposed to come up 5.3' as forecast right now. That will put it in my backyard. Maybe I will get some trigger time on icebergs.

Then by Friday it is supposed to change into snow but have no idea how much at this point.

They are calling for 10"-14" here in Winterset but that all depends on when it changes over.  Right now it's 36 degrees and calm.  I'm trying to decide whether or not to drive them family down to Derby for my families Christmas party tonight.  I hate winter.

Here in Waterloo they're saying about an inch of rain and then turning to freezing rain then snow.  Yippee.  Some people in the area had lost power last night because of the freezing rain.  Just a light drizzle right now.  If this turns to ice, we'll be up shit creek.  They'll be even more downed power lines.

Too bad for you. I have some Sirloin steaks that I need to grill before the rain starts up again. But even when it does snow I just shovel to the grill, clean it off and grill away. I am a little less enthusiastic in rain.

My traps were under 4 feet of water this morning.  Last night I was still able to walk the ice to check them.  I definitely would take snow over rain.

Temps in the teens or lower would be appreciated as well.  I am ready to drop some bait through the ice.
