    December Blizzard in Central Iowa

    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     Gene5335 captured video of a snow storm in Ames, Iowa on December 19. He says this was the first significant storm to hit that area for 2012. 'We went through a long period of no snow for a lot of this year,' he said. He says traveling after a storm like this one is not recommended, but he expects to see people out. 'The snow has tapered off... and crews are cleaning up the snow right now,' he said. 'A hefty snow storm like this is not that unusual for Iowa. We get a lot of snow and a lot of wind.'
    - Jareen, CNN iReport producer
