Just because some group predicts significant snowfall doesn't mean it is a likely outcome. Organizations that forecast weather do what they do for whatever reason, but there was never going back a week a high likelihood of significant snow around DC. Never. Same, I'm having a blast with this storm either way. I have mountains of frozen ball bearings that still having been cleared from the parking lot and have not melted a single bit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just that some people are silenced/treated as inferiors here and I find it frustrating. But I understand if I'm posting too much. I'll rein it in. you have posted 5x more in the last 24 hours than I have, but you are being "silenced". lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too funny. And mappy is a much better person than you. Great to hear your invaluable opinion. Thank you very much. Have a great rest of your day.

One of those decides to let fly while someone is walking by, and it's gonna be a recreation of that "stinger to the head" scene from Starship Troopers... Yeah, and they are half the size they were a week ago before our mini thaw the other day. Luckily no one trudges through that part of our yard during the winter. Had to close down the sidewalk by the brewery for a few days because snow of the roof was threatening to fall. Glad we did, huge chunks fell during business hours on Saturday, would have seriously injured someone had they been hit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been here since the beginning and according to @mappy nobody likes me. I could really give two shits because I know in real life a lot more people like me than her. Internet message boards are not exactly the domain of popular people. I’m sure in real life you are a great guy. Just drop it and forget it. You will never win regardless. i didn't say no one liked you. i am sure many here do. i personally can't stand that you take very single post and make it sex related. its gross more often than not. but you are who you are, and it is what it is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs.J Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Mr J and I just cleared the drive. About a 1/4” sleet covered by about 3” of snow covered with about another 1/4” sleet. Felt like we were shoveling sawdust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't look forward to scraping nearly an inch of sleet off the car, but maybe by the time I get around to the task, it won't be a solid brick quite yet! Feels like walking on wet sand out there. And I hear you...sleet is about the worst thing to shovel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

esullivan Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Scene at the end of my alley. White SUV driven by very young guy going too fast down Nebraska Ave, took right on Nevada and lost control into parked cars. Luckily no injuries. New Range Rover is recent replacement for stolen RR. Haven't seen any plows or salt trucks all day, they were out in droves last week (?) when we had 1". 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdhokie Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Shoveling this sleet is no joke. Heavy as heck. I had an 18" pile of sleet at the corner of the house where it all rolled off the roof. There is an icy crust underneath. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
