Here's a couple of links in case any of you doesn't have them, yet and would like to do so. This first one is very valuable to keep an eye on the entire nation and know of our loved-ones anywhere, when they have a weather warning.
Today was windy as hell, gusts up to 46 mph as the cold front came pummeling thru. Max was a bit warm at 12C, but it got nicer in the evening as temps started dropping rapidly, now down to 0C. Lots of fast-moving puffy clouds in the sky. Humidity was around 25%, now up to around 40% (dews consistent around -10C).
Yup, Winter is back. Temperatures in the teens and 20s north of D.C and single digits in Northern New England. Orange lines are the Upper heights (NW Flow)

Is it snowing over Iowa again?! What a season!
Number of Days Des Moines had snow falling:
October: 4 days
November: 3 days
December: 9 days
January: 15 days
February: 15 days
54.5" of snow for the season not including today. 2 feet above normal.
It's in the mid-30s right now with rain moving toward us. As it moves in, the temp is expected to fall for a bit to about freezing bringing sleet and possibly some freezing rain. Should cause any problems on the road since its been so warm, but still. It's currently about the warmest it will be today. Then back up near 60 tomorrow and Wednesday with storms possible Wednesday night through Thursday night.

Sounds like ups and downs for you too. Pretty soon we'll be sweating from humidity and summer temps will be here
