This is for my Big Bro who is probably walking on the beach......
The Clear Lake Area-Wide Forcast:

INITIALLY FREEZING RAIN IS EXPECTED TO SPREAD INTO NORTHERN IOWA...NORTHWEST OF A MANNING TO BUFFALO CENTER LINE. THIS AREA OF FREEZING RAIN WILL THEN SPREAD EAST ACROSS NORTHERN IOWA INTO THE EARLY AFTERNOON. THE PRECIPITATION WILL GRADUALLY CHANGE OVER SNOW LATER THIS AFTERNOON.

IN ADDITION TO THE ICE...MODERATE SNOW OF 2 TO 4 INCHES WITH AS MUCH AS 6 INCHES POSSIBLE NEAR THE MINNESOTA BORDER BEFORE THE SNOW ENDS THIS EVENING. SNOW IS EXPECTED TO BE HEAVY AT TIMES THROUGHOUT THE WARNING AREA...WITH SNOWFALL RATES OF ONE TO TWO INCHES PER HOUR COMMON THIS AFTERNOON.
Love you Bro!
UPDATE: Stinking storm wimped out! But before it did we had a great Thunder/Rain/Sleet storm. Thunder, lightning, pouring rain and driving sleet all lasting about 30 minutes. What a bummer!! And to add insult to injury ... NO Snow! Oh well, State Girls Basketball Tourney is just around the corner. There is still hope for a late winter wingding snowfall!

Did you actually get snow accumulation or ice? We just got rain, but we're a bit south of you. It's been gray and cloudy here all day.
Enjoy the basketball game tonight. Our team lost Tuesday. Stinks.
Hey Jodi,
We got thundersleet, about an inch worth.
The Ventura game was postponed til Friday. Maybe y'all should come up!
