Sal,
Get that firewood stacked up Buddy. This one looks like a doozy!
All you guys out that way, be safe.
Joe, Mike, Bob, Dan, Dom. You guys are looking at a foot of the white stuff minimum.

Yeah, it could be more $:-\$ . I was scheduled to start my next project, this crap is going to mess me up really good.
We've been having temperature above 60 and I been working inside for the past 2 months. Now that I have a project outdoors, we get this crap...oh well.

Shark Hunter · January 21, 2016, 06:15:53 AM

The weather has been crazy lately.
I said I wasn't going to put up any Christmas lights this year.
Two weeks before the 25th, I was out there in flip flops and shorts in 60 degree plus temps.
It has been really cold here lately, Single digits some nights.
I just know this storm has a lot of power, I am just going to get a little clip of it, but on your side, it doesn't look good.
Sorry it is putting a damper on your project, but you can't mess with mother nature.
Be safe,
Daron

Yup, being in construction for 40+ years, I've learned that mother nature is the boss and most of us don't forget it.

I have enough reels to service that will keep me going for a few days

I was wishing we were going to have a mild winter

Notice I sad WISHING!

I have a friend coming over today to put the plow on the JD rider to prepare for this upcoming storm. I like Sal had a working career in construction for some 25 years outside and for the other 30 years was coped up in a office. I got soft

I cant wait to move to a warmer climate were there is little or no snow.

Anyone that can get a flight to West Palm Beach or Ft. Lauderdale is welcome to stay with us for a few days to let this pass....

It's going to reach 70 today and rain tomorrow, then 5 days of good weather. I don't miss the snow at all.

Thanks Sid. The snow plow is on and the chains so I'm ready, for what that's is worth. They are predicting 10"-18" for our area. If that holds up we are in for a mess.

It looks like most of you guys have the option of staying inside. Poor Broadway Dom has to keep the parking lot clear. I'm thinking aboucha Dom stay warm and dry. Dominick

I got to see snow last Sunday for the first time in 39 years.Now I get to see a blizzard too. After this storm I can go home to Florida with fresh memories of what I've been missing.

coastal_dan · January 21, 2016, 09:05:04 PM

I just got a Blizzard watch warning on my phone...

I'm not a snow guy...stay safe all, I'll drink some Blanton's and think of you

newport · January 21, 2016, 10:05:59 PM

I lived in Alaska for three years. A little bit of snow doesn't bother me.

surfcaster · January 21, 2016, 10:16:14 PM
