  1. LOL at all the NAM talk overnight! Meanwhile everything looks on track
  2. I had 3 billable plowing that season after the Halloween storm. 3 inches, 4.5 and 2.5. WORST winter ever as far as I'm concerned
  3. Really? Wow that surprises me considering pics I've seen
  4. Plus just the nature of the storm I really think some just stopped reporting. My Grandfather was district manager of H.E.L.Co. ( now spinning like an EF5 in his grave due to Neversource ) in Simsbury at the time. They used to keep track of depths for the crews etc and said at the office they had 26 inches as best they could tell but he felt it was more just impossible to tell with the winds. And man! Imagine those winds with the 2013 storm! THAT would have been insane!
  5. Likewise! I grew up in Granby CT. We were at the bus stop when my mom and a couple other parents came walking to the bus stop. We were like WTF they never come see us. When they said they got a call and school was cancelled you could probably hear our excitement a mile away! And no school the rest of the week
  6. To this day I will chuck those accumulation amounts far and wide! Quite underdone in some area
  7. Ended up with 2.25 here before the changeover. Between the sleet and freezing rain, down to 1.75
  8. Just about 2 inches here now at the shop. Some very large flakes starting to mix in so I think the sleet is not far behind funny the temp has actually fallen from 18 to 16 in the last hour
  9. I mean I agree with the crowd here that think we've become too soft... and for sure have! However you're absolutely right. Te cold ground and low temps made the roads instantly slick. I can even feel it in the Power wagon this A.M. Roads are NOT good here right now
  10. Hoping that happens. Get a decent amount of sleet in this stuff and it won't instantly vaporize like the stuff Sunday evening. Good prep for the weekend
  11. I'm about to leave the shop here and go for a joyride in the Hills, oh! I mean go look at a job for about an hour or so
  12. Hit the one inch mark in Simsbury here about 15 minutes ago and accumulating nicely
  13. It's actually an absolutely amazing country. I never want to leave the States, but it's one of the very few other countries I could see myself living in... even with no snow. The food, people scenery etc. Did I say food?! Sawasdee Krab!
  14. The way the former King performs these days you can mark me safe from being surprised
  15. Already mostly covered here. Got to love cold ground
  16. Snow just started in Simsbury. Seems like it's picking up pretty quick as well
  17. 12° here in Westfield, Like was said earlier this will Virgil for a while, and then probably come in like a wall. Be nice to see some daytime snow. 8:30 service call and then a joyride around in the snow afterwards
  18. Was working in a school yesterday and they were talking about that exact subject.
  19. I totally understand! Don't forget to laugh... even at something totally ridiculous
  20. Simsbury just canceled. They haven't had many this season so it was probably an easy decision
