  1. To this day I will chuck those accumulation amounts far and wide! Quite underdone in some area
  2. Ended up with 2.25 here before the changeover. Between the sleet and freezing rain, down to 1.75
  3. 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
  4. 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
  5. 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
  6. 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
  7. Hit the one inch mark in Simsbury here about 15 minutes ago and accumulating nicely
  8. 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!
  9. The way the former King performs these days you can mark me safe from being surprised
  10. Already mostly covered here. Got to love cold ground
  11. Snow just started in Simsbury. Seems like it's picking up pretty quick as well
  12. 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
  13. Was working in a school yesterday and they were talking about that exact subject.
  14. I totally understand! Don't forget to laugh... even at something totally ridiculous
  15. Simsbury just canceled. They haven't had many this season so it was probably an easy decision
  16. I said it yesterday... spoiled! OR, did you accidentally slip on one of the little ones soiled diapers? Don't think I've ever seen you so negative
  17. I think the glaze of ice idea has been GREATLY overstated, but I understand what you're saying
  18. I've seen exactly what you're talking about! My Great Grandmother lived on Roslyn Street in Hartford RIGHT on the line, Trout Brook was always nice... then turn the corner and it was another world
  19. Some maybe a little, but in my eyes there's WAY more focus on the roads during storms now than say what I remember as a kid in the 70s through into the 80s. It changed drastically in the early 90s when we actually started getting regular snow events again. When I was a kid it was normal to not see blacktop for a couple days on secondary roads after a storm if temps were right. IMO there's an over obsession with clearing roads during storms now
  20. My gut is I'd rather be in Mass for this weekend... at least western/ central
