Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by valerie.

When I got stuck, I clicked on all of the clues that I had solved, to color them gray. Then, looking at where there were still unsolved blue squares I could use color logic to see that the blue 2 in row 13 could only go in columns 19-20. Then more line logic. When I got stuck again, I looked at the black 2 in row 13. It can't go in columns 17-18 because that would force a black 2 above it, and there is no black 2 in row 12. So the black 2 (in row 13) goes in columns 9-10 -- the only spaces that are still available for it at that point. So I flagged the puzzle as needing moderate lookahead.
