1. That's 12 miles from where I grew up

2. Storm Lake

is a seriously cool name for a town. Sounds like it should be up in the wilds of Alaska, though.

3. Was a cool town

Probably still is.

5. Never been there

My brother in law lives in Waterloo, and I did some last-minute volunteer work for Bill Bradley in Ames and Des Moines in 2000. That's the extent of my Iowa knowledge.

7. yes very cool name

I used to ski alone a lot. The first question at any resort is where are you from. My reply was often Strom Lake Iowa, just cause I liked the name.
