"We are going to experience some mild weather the first half of this weekend, but we might pay for it the second half of the weekend."

Oh my god. What does that mean??

Sorry guys, I am in a stupid mood. I am watching politicians and weathermen attempting to get me motivated to do someting I don't want to do because they are both FOS.

Hey, turns out we might pay for it. Well, not we, but our customers. They are calling for 2-4" tomorrow night into Monday.

I love this weather. We almost hit 70 this week, supposed to hit 50 today and 2-4" tomorrow night. I am not kidding, I could get used to this.

calling for 6-10" here. GreenMonster and Ground Effects should be in heaven with their 12-24" or whatever they get, they probably call that a dusting.

This is what a South Carolina snow looks like. The ground was bare when we went to bed last night and was already starting to melt by sun up. By dinner time it will be nothing but a mud hole. but the little ones and the dog enjoy it once or twice a year.

Let's see our weatherman said a trace to maybe 1/2" " No Real Mositure to worry about and its changing to rain" his words. it started at abt 11 am about 2:30 it started laying on the roads. They aslo said it would change to rain around 4 and be gone by 6pm tops. Well 4 came and went still snow, 6 came still coming down...8 still snowing, about 9 we start getting sleet and freezing rain, lol. These weather people just have absoltely no idea. We wound up with 5" of nice wet snow, and then a little coating of sleet and freezing rain. but at least it was billable time.

2" on the ground now, another 8" overnight. And my skid steer operator is out sick. I'm not looking forward to sitting in that thing for 12hours.

Shut Up! I can't take it anymore.

Earlier, I was telling somebody else that I was looking at the 15 day forecast last night (hunting for snow) and for next week they had snow almost every day. Not flurries, or snow showers, but descriptions like "periods of snow", "intermittent snow" and "snow much of the time." Needless to say, I became excited.

While laying in bed this morning, I was telling my wife about what I had read (like she cared.) I added that it probably had changed over night.

Well, I came down this morning and checked the 15 day again and guess what?? No snow on the 15 day. Maybe, it was a dream.

haha. I'm going out now on the 2nd sanding run, if it makes you feel any better...You will get your snow, or an early spring. I just want it one or the other!

We've been gettin steady snow for the last 6 days in our snowbelt areas. Gone out salting or plowing every day. I think I've about as much money just this week as I did in the whole month of December plowing snow. I'm actually gettin sick of winter. My whole life consists of eating, sleeping, plowing/salting, working on plowtrucks, and goin to school. And the worst has yet to come. And as for the weathermen, you could basically take 4 different weather outlooks, throw them in a hat and pick one and you'd be better off than listening to these idiots.

I really messed up with my career choice-shoulda been a weatherman- what other job can you be wrong more than half the time and still keep your job?
