Finally coming down quite heavily here in NYC

Bit overdue, would have liked this yesterday or the day before. Still, I'm not complaining. Happy holiday season y'all

Got up to 61 today in Augusta. A little breezy out for a bit, but nowhere near the gusts they were predicting. Felt like a nice spring day.

Lots of wind, little snow, and for some reason no one in Michigan seems to have ever driven in snow before.

No kidding. There are sirens every few minutes...emergency vehicles rushing off to an accident. We've actually got a fair amount of snow, though.

Well, we got a layer of ice and then about 6"-8" on top of that. I did 8 deliveries today and it wasn't too bad once the idiots made it to work.

It may have gotten that low inland, but I'm a couple miles from the ocean ... when I'm not at Groom. The sea moderates our temperature.

I wouldn't say we had a blizzard last night ...but I was asleep so I don't know how bad it was during the storm .

Woke up to aboot 8" of really wet heavy snow .

Worked all day 40 feet in the air on a flat roof . I'll sleep good tonight after all the walking and climbing. The wind was killer ,blew all day long and we had zero windblocks .

Got to go north tomorrow and repair a chiller . They got a foot . The plan is to dig it out and complete repairs. Kinda ironic fixing an air conditioner (for cooling ) in this weather .

To me it just appears as a normal winter snow . I feel the media and the weather service does create a lot of hype . That's not a good thing ,I don't even get out of bed anymore when the tornado sirens go off . The blizzard warning had me concerned only for the fact I have outdoor projects at work to complete before years end...

Just got back to Nashville from Kalamazoo, had to drive through the mess in Indiana.

Not fun in the girlfriend's PT Cruiser, but we kept it between the ditches. Did almost get run off the road by a semi, who blared his air horn at us to top it off. Got the plate number and the name of the company, we'll be making a call tomorrow.
