What’s with the weather lately? 
What’s with the weather lately?

The weather in Cedar Rapids has been rather a mixed bag lately. From one day to the next we’ve gone from sunny and warm to cold and snowy. I decided to head downtown and ask around to see what others thought about what’s up with it.

*Update* The Gazette Online has chosen to show my video on their site! Click here to check it out.

  1. Great video, i really envy how well you got to asking people’s opinions and filming them for this little documentary, wish i could do the same.

    Oddly enough the weather was pretty decent over here at the moment on and off, we usually have it really bad :)

    Hah! I moved from Vancouver to Iowa. It had been a long time since I’d seen cold weather ;)

    The beauty of carrying this little cell phone and doing the interviews is that people are not intimidated by it. It’s tiny, and non intrusive. If I had my regular video camera with me, I can assure you that I would not have found people so willing to talk to me.

    Then again, this is Iowa. People are open and very friendly here :)

    Hi David!
    I hope the days get hot there soon.
    I loved the talking you manage to get out of people. Seeing these people on the video its very documentary style, and as such it sounded very friendly, almost “intimate”.
    Always good to see you videos. Congrats for the republishing in gazetteonline.com.
    Rgds, zn

    David Howell, roving mobile reporter!
    I love it!
    You should totally do more of this.
    You found hundreds of people! And got them to speak to you! Videoing with your phone! Of course, as you say, it’s less threatening than a bigger camcorder. I found that for the first time, really, with Mrs Patel last week.
    Brilliant job, mate.
