Re: Santy Claus
We're getting ready for a "major" storm......4-7"
 Seriously, I hope I remembered everything from the grocery store....I'm sure they have no more bread, milk, or eggs even though we will probably be plowed out by tomorrow evening!!

Re: Santy Claus
Went to -15 last night but I think we're up to 20 today. I forgot to check the antifreeze in one of the trucks and it was all froze up this morning. All thawed out now and there doesn't seem to be any damage. I'll know shortly.

Re: Santy Claus
Hell of alot of snow to date.
But the last couple days it has soared close to 50. Streets are wet and if it dries, and stays in the late 40's, then I may have to break out the cycle if I am lucky. I cannot believe how warm it is now. CRAZY!

Re: Santy Claus
10+" already and coming down hard. I love it!
I'll take this in December ANY day over 70*s. I love 70*'s with a slight breeze ...but in fall and spring. I could NOT live without the four seasons.

Re: Santy Claus
Speedy
4 seasons are great if the went this way. Summer, fall, summer, spring and start over. I can life without the snow. But the rest is great. I think I could stand a month of winter. It does clean up everything nicely. |

Re: Santy Claus
I love the snow too, but the lack of work starts to get me itching. Had a few things I thought would pan out by now, but just floating. I've already started my end year rap up and just about finished my biz planing for spring, now the cabin fever begins to set in while Teetor sits on the beech with the topless island girls.........damn google head.
it's basic physics S+C=WWMC Snow+cold=Women wear more cloths Bob

Re: Santy Claus
We got our first real 2"-3" last night and you'd think everyone around here was from Florida and had never seen or driven in snow before! There was something like 150+ fender benders/accidents during morning rush hour. It never ceases to amaze me how much people around here forget how to drive in the snow when we get the first of the white stuff.
