The first major snowstorm for Eastern Iowa is finally arriving. We could see 6 inches or more of snow by the time the storm has passed through Wednesday evening.
It was a toasty Tuesday. It was so hot that the daily record high set almost 50 years ago was broken. The warmest recorded low temperature was also broken in Illinois.
Well, it turns out that it's actually Severe Weather Awareness Week and if you're looking to chase some awesome storms, do I have an idea for you. While this is not an official "storm chasing" certification this could be the next best thing, especially in Northeastern Iowa. It's pretty simple to be a storm spotter in Iowa.
