Rough ride to work this morning. A 20 minute drive took over an hour. The bad news is that my dad called me and wants me to pick him up at the Pittsburgh Airport tonight while we are supposed to get another wave of this crap. I pray the flight is cancelled. I'm sure he won't be upset that he'll have to spend another day where it's 75 degrees versus this stuff.
ugh...u might wanna leave work a tad early today....lol
215 accidents yesterday morning alone with the crap we got in MN. the afternoon commute was garbage too. Had the pleasure of driving through Minneapolis and St. Paul in rush hour. Think it took a few years off my life! Luckily I had a nice Diesel Shorty to take the edge off!
Well, I have to go and rough this stuff to see my wife in the hospital. Wish me luck. I just hope she gets discharged before the big stuff tonight.......
looks like 12-22 hear. Snow just started about 30 min or so ago. and im going to boston tonight for a linkin park concert. Taking the train though so wont have to drive.

We got missed for the most part from the first wave thank God I am tired of the crap. I have to go to Virgina tomorrow so I hope it holds off. The up side is I got rained out from work so we did not have to fined child care for the kids they have been sick for two weeks.

That would be an awesome concert. I Love Linkin Park. My son got me listening to them a few years ago.
Yeah Lots of sleet here right now. Just started about 2 hours ago and the streets look awful but I am told they are not terrible yet but well on their way. Snow is expected to follow later tonight. Good luck to all of you that have to travel. As for me I am not moving from my house.
Well the rain hit here last night around 11:00pm and sometime during the night the temp dropped and it turned to sleet. Around 5am I peaked out the window and saw that everything was one big white sheet of ice... Well the sheet grew until around 10am and it has pretty much been snowing ever since then. It's still only 19 degrees here the wind is blowing 30-40mph. What a fun day! lol At least we didn't lose power or anything like that. Hope everyone stays safe and warm today!
Was suppose to fly to Cincinnati for work.. flight cancelled. Good news - don't have to travel through the storm... bad news - won't get to visit Straus Tobacco in Cincinnati, est 1880. Hmm maybe it will be rescheduled and I can go at a later date..
Snowing pretty good on nh. Rds suck but I'm half in the bag on a train to Boston for a concert so its cool till I het home at 2am and have to brush my car off
Well, I cant top cooch36's pic but here are a few I just took of what we've got going on in central Missouri right now....
First up, my 11 yr old daughter sitting on our front steps....
Next up, a shot from a second story window of my truck & driveway - note the absolute lack of anything even remotely resembling a road anywhere in the picture....
And all that adds up to this....
... in excess of 14 inches of snow so far (drifts are much deeper) and still coming down faster than we can shovel it. NUTS!!!
I will not shovel until late tonight after is stops. I did remove one drift from the back door so the dog can get out that was over 3 feet. Even my lab looks at me like "you want me to go out in that?".

LOL Thats the only reason I shoveled this last time - at least a lab has a chance. IVE GOT A PUG!!! LOL I opened the door and the dog looked up at me like "Yeah, you cant kiss my a$$ too boss!" :-)
Thought I was safe in TN. But I forgot that I had to fly to DC this week and now I'm sitting at the airport bar waiting for a flight that just keeps creeping further and further away! Aaarg!
Yeah, so you northern folks keep safe and warm up there. 25 years in Lake Ontario-fed snowbelt country in upstate central New York has taught me anything can happen!
Picture didnt come out this time, but we are now just shy of 24 inches on the ground... which means that over the last two hours or so we have gotten an additional TEN INCHES, give or take.
This is a house about a half mile away from mine. We had 3 feet of snow on our roof last wk end pre-this wk storm.
You Boys got to get up there and shovel that crap off How bad can it hurt falling off a one story house into 3 feet of snow. Thats how it was here last year the worst I seen in years
