    well, around 5PM, they activated our skywarn group shortly after my last post above here.

    I used Echolink on my smart phone to participate in this. We were out for about 1 hour.

    the county to our southeast, about 35 miles away, had a confirmed touch down during this time.

    While I was out, I reported dime size hail. Albeit very short lived.

    Hopefully it won't be cold enough to slop the roads up.

    Also the ###### heavier part of the winter weather advisory is the North East part of Minnesota. 2 to 5 inches up there but maybe a few flakes here. Shouldnt get too cold to freeze. Will be jut wet. But still enough to be cautious. Be safe out there folks.
