I wonder how many political and media hacks will get stuck on the tarmac with cancelled flights in the morning....

Forecast for where I live:

Calhoun Co. Iowa Severe Watches & Warnings
Watches & Warnings
Blizzard Warning
Statement as of 8:58 PM CST on February 01, 2016

... Blizzard Warning remains in effect from midnight tonight to 6 am CST Wednesday...

* timing... snow will spread across southwest Iowa late tonight and Blossom over the area during the overnight hours through late Tuesday morning. A period of very heavy snow is expected to occur during the Tuesday morning commute with snowfall rates of 1 to 2 inches per hour. The strongest winds are then to develop late Tuesday morning into the evening.

* Storm total snow... accumulations of 8 to 12 inches.

* Winds/visibility... northeast winds becoming north 25 to 35 mph with gusts in excess of 40 mph. Visibilities below one quarter mile with whiteout conditions likely to occur.

* Impacts... extremely hazardous travel conditions will develop. Travel may become nearly impossible at times. Please reconsider any travel plans.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A Blizzard Warning means severe winter weather conditions are expected or occurring. Falling and blowing snow with strong winds and poor visibilities are likely. This will lead to whiteout conditions... making travel extremely dangerous. Do not travel. If you must travel... have a winter survival kit with you. If you get stranded... stay with your vehicle.

Congratulations on your brother’s fine choice. Iowa’s religious Right voters must be vastly undercounted in these polls. Discovering that was true, prompted my smart remark. No offense taken, I hope.

I heard tonight that IOWA Republicans have only twice ever picked the Republican nominee. Dole, and GW Bush.

Also, heard that the Iowa winner on the Republican side, never wins in New Hampshire.

All is upside down.

TRUMP TRAIN is rolling! On to New Hampshire!
