Doodle Posted February 12, 2019 Report Share Posted February 12, 2019 Great Lakes - Great Weather! Ha ha!!! Weather Advisories until Wednesday in white on map. Half a foot of snow or more, 30-40 mph wind gusts, and throw in a chance of freezing rain and ice accumulation for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shepp Posted February 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2019 We didn’t get two much maybe 4”. I’m just happy I founds some salt to clean up the ice from the storm last week. My local hardware store got 150 bags yesterday and sold out in less than 45 min. It’s so hard to get around here he ordered pool salt. Last Wednesday we had an ice storm and it’s been below freezing since, it’s been a real good time!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravenworks Posted February 12, 2019 Report Share Posted February 12, 2019 I feel for you guy's. I spent 35 year's freezing my azz off running heavy equipment, today they have HVAC radios. BTW, it's been in the mid 80's here but cold as hell up home. Be safe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sisco Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 You guys are evil! You ever see the film strip where the Dad drags a kid out to watch him blow all his music CD’s apart with a shotgun, and then it pans to 10 years later and the now young man puts a set of headphones on his now in a wheel chair Dad, who apparently had a stroke, and starts playing loud, raunchy death metal and walks out of the nursing home, gets into his car, and drives away?
