Looks like we're in for more of the white stuff.  Talking anywhere between 6 and 12 inches here in Waterloo.  Everyone ready for this?

I'm typically ready all year around, you know how Iowa weather can be!!!!

After the last Snow storm/blizzard I put a tow/recovery rope in my truck as well as some more food (had Canned food before, now I have a bunch of MRE's)

If the Feds would let us take care of the problem we wouldn't have all the illegals...  FWIW, from what my brother says y'all have plenty of illegals coming into Iowa now too...  Plus all the south Chicago ghetto imports and Katrina refugees.  Apparently Ames (where my parents and brother live) has seen a huge increase in crime, primarily from the latter mentioned folks...

I'm in Ames and while I haven't noticed a significant increase in crime that is probably because I live on campus. How ever on the rare occasion that I go to the malls there are some serious little hoodlum kids there....

I'm okay with the snow, because I don't have to go out in it. :D

I'm just 10 miles north of Ames, never locked my garage before. I do now.

Back to the original topic, I already put in for vacation on Tuesday and have enough reloading supplies to keep my busy for the day.

Ames is turning into mini-chicago.

My boss called me today and told me not to make the trip into work!

MORE SNOW!!! You gotta be kidding.... this is getting SOOO old. We better have a DAMN nice spring and summer for the winter we had to endure.

Spring could be pretty interesting. All this snow on the ground has to go somewhere when it melts... if we get rain at the wrong time, we might be in for another round of brutal flooding.

+1...  ice jams, flooding, and heaving roadways... good times.

I feel for those who are getting more than me. I am in the 4-7inch swath. More than I want either way. I am soo tired of this snow and cold. I am ready for warm weather.

Heard on the news we have had 51 inches of snow this season, now we can wait for the spring melt and the flooding.

The local news has already been talking about this.  Hopefully we don't have another spring like '08.  I don't think Cedar Rapids could take it, much less North Cedar.
And I have to agree with Ar-Bandit, especially after last summer.  Never did seem to warm up.  I remember riding motorcycles in August with chaps, leather jacket and gloves cause it was cold.  WTF is is up with that?

Not supposed to be as bad over here. Areas of the country that aren't used to getting massive amounts of snow (i.e. east coast) are getting socked. 36" on the ground in VA with another 22" in the forecast for today... crazy.

P.S. Thanks for turning me in, Cav. You're a real class act.

Looks like it is going to be a wet spring too...

No problem.  I'm fairly certain the OWNERS of this fine site are part of the certain ethnic group you used derogatory terms to describe.  Think about it.  Maybe you should take your ass over to stormfront or something.

Keep your bickering to IM's and stick on topic gentlemen as this Topic is about snow and not about mud...slinging.  Don't know what was said but evidently it warranted a removal due to COC #1 violation.  BTW the owners are of Cuban descent and don't know if that is what was being talked about or illegal immigrants coming from South of the border.  Rant Mode Off.
