I HATE IOWA SO MUCH!!!

so yeah, 7" of snow later....

We had lead lab this morning @ 0630. i left my apartment [in full service blues no less] and had to trudge through parts of our parking lot that were not plowed up to 1.5 feet of snow. a wet uniform and wet shoes are not fun.

I somehow managed to pull my truck out and not get stuck. the first time....

after lead lab, i came back and changed into BDUs and then drove back up to campus for my AF class. and this time i got stuck. the guy who was coming to plow our parking lot ended up helping me out and someone else who saw me stuck came out from her apt too and helped push. i even had to use my brand new boots i bought over spring break to kick out the snow from my tires.

I FUCKING HATE IOWA AND SNOW!!!!!!

I was driving to lead lab, and didn't stop at ANY stop sign; because i was afraid of getting stuck. I had a huge ass snowplow pull out in front of me and i had to swerve into the opposite lane to avoid hitting it - and then i had to drive across the fucking blvd of snow they made [which caused me to drive sideways down Hayward Ave].

pictars below:

all you ******s in warm weather better be damn happy that you don't have to deal with this shit - especially when it's now spring.

The bed of my truck. i wish it was sand, not snow.


my windshield


Welch Ave [really, Welch Blvd of Snow]


Welch Ave [still a blvd of snow]


the pics of Welch Ave are after my AF class, driving back home. this morning, that whole road was one big snow trench.

and to think that not even 4 days ago i was sitting on a beach in sunny Florida.

Erm... what are you moaning about? That's the standard amount of snow we get here 6 months a year.

we haven't received this amount of snow here in iowa in a long time. we had a snow storm back in december; and that was it. so we were actually pretty snow-free for a good portion of this winter.

and i was hoping so bad we wouldn't have any more. ugh.

When more reports come in I will make a midwest map.


Here are totals as of 8am for Illinois (with CWA plotted)

damn i wish we got more snow this year...i need to go boarding before the season is over!

Not standard for the midwest.

Ames should only see 5" of snow for the whole month of March based on Climatic normals.

If this were Feb or Jan I would side with you.

boo-hoo, stop whining, still snow on the streets here and it's supposed to be early spring.

i was so hoping we wouldn't see this storm. i was really really really hoping i wouldn't have to see snow, especially after being on the beach for the past week for spring break. and then we get this shit: our monthly average in one day...

it's snowing here too but i don't give a shit 'cause i'll be in sunny Miami in just about 24 hours...
