Tornadoes in December.
December 15, 2021 at 3:10 pm
I haved lived in Iowa all my life, having been born and raised here. This afternoon's forecast is for high winds with tornados. I have no memory in my 50+ years here of tornados in December.
My wife and I are leaving here shortly to get ice cream.

It's so windy here today, I went outside for a minute and the Brits made me Prime Minister.

A full maple leaf blew in under the front door today. I don't even think there's a maple tree in this neighborhood. If I were amidst my maternal family, they would say it's blowing a gale.

Clear and warm right now, rain this afternoon, then three days clear, then rain from Tuesday until the heat death of the universe.
No high winds or tornadoes forecast.

NWA has had, as of today, five new high temperatures for dates in December. Two of the previous highs were from 2020. Two from 2012.
Concrete shouldn't sweat this often in this season. With snow in the Rockies, that's an interesting situation for Iowa. Enjoy the ice cream.

Jehanne, hope you got a pass on any damage like we did.
