Commercial Miscanthus harvest happening now in Eastern Iowa! Really cool to see a conventional livestock operation, solar panels, and next gen biofuel feedstocks all in the same field. Welcome to Iowa! Photo credit: Travis Hedrick, AGrowTech #ThisIsIowa #Bioenergy

I talked w/ @NWSDesMoines meteorologist Allan Curtis this morning. Here's what he told me: - Snow will be widespread noon/early afternoon. - Expect moderate/heavy snowfall after noon. - When snow picks up it'll be difficult for crews to keep the roads clear. @IowaPublicRadio

Always have a great time setting up @CampbellSci weather stations, especially with the @ISUBiomass group! But does anyone have tips on how to keep your fingers warm when wiring in 30F conditions? 🥶

Here's my current unofficial summary of Iowa automated station wind gust reports and NWS Local Storm Reports from the 10 August 2020 Derecho. #derecho #iawx mesonet.agron.iastate.edu/on…

Earlier the KDMX radar N of #DesMoines found some of the highest velocity data I have ever seen in a #Derecho. These values were higher than any velocity data seen w/ #Isaias last week. A very damaging & dangerous wind storm moving through Iowa. #IAwx

Here's the radar estimated rainfall from today. A small sliver of rain fell within the D3 drought area, but certainly not enough to help the conditions. #iawx
Replying to @NWSDesMoines
where did today's rain fall compared to this?
