The 'ol bubble is going to get tested. Forecast from local news around 12" now.What happened to that QC weather bubble?
You’ve only been dusted so far. Sorry to say this, but it’s only going to get worse.1 accident and 1 VID so far. People still driving way too fast. Its going to be a long two nights.
I know. Hopefully after I get off when people start going to work. Roads are 100% ice and snow and the last two vehicles going past me are going 55 which is the speed limit but about 25mpg too fast.You’ve only been dusted so far. Sorry to say this, but it’s only going to get worse.
Stay safe and try to stay rested my friend!1 accident and 1 VID so far. People still driving way too fast. Its going to be a long two nights.
He got off lucky - could have been arrested (for the suspended lic).Now a guy that is suspended as well as his female passenger just ran out of gas on one of our 4 lanes. How can you run out of gas during a winter storm?? Then he tries telling me as he sat in the driver's seat that there was another driver who was valid who got picked up and went for gas. I asked him where this "driver's" footprints and tire tracks were and he said they have been covered up by snow lol. I asked if that was the case why was their footprints to the house they went looking for gas were still visible. He swore to God he wasn't driving. I said if you're honest I won't write you any tickets and he continued to lie. I wrote him the ticket and then he admitted to driving and also having no insurance on the vehicle. Now you know why we can retire at age 50 with 22 years in. These people burn you out.
As someone whose mom made him walk to school in Wisconsin through literal CANYONS of piled snow, I agree 100%I cannot believe what kind of pussies society has turned into. Little bit of snow and it's "OMG! SHUT EVERYTHING DOWN!!!! IT"S SNOWING!!!" I mean, seriously. We got about 11 inches of snow here so far. It's not that bad. School closed yesterday and today, no freaking reason why they are closed. I just drove by the damn school. I would have easily had my kids there today. Miraculously, I was also able to brave 'Snowmageddon" after work last night, went to the gym, stopped at the store afterwards to get some groceries and a case of beer. Just got back from a little trip downtown. It's fine.
People are soft these days. I fear for the future. Now get off my snow covered lawn.

Torb's, if they cancelled school every time it snowed in Wisconsin you would still be in the 8th grade because you would have never been in school. It snows in the Midwest, deal with it or move south.As someone whose mom made him walk to school in Wisconsin through literal CANYONS of piled snow, I agree 100%
I blame lawyers and litigiousness more than society, though.
We would normally get a 2-hour late start with a lot of other schools closed down. Good memories of turning on the TV to see if my school was on the blotter.Torb's, if they cancelled school every time it snowed in Wisconsin you would still be in the 8th grade because you would have never been in school.

My dad was the director of transportation for our school, if he could drive the mile down our gravel road to the highway, we were going to have school.Torb's, if they cancelled school every time it snowed in Wisconsin you would still be in the 8th grade because you would have never been in school.

Pretty sure we're going to have a Round 2 storm around Friday, before the temps REEEEALLY drop.I don't know numbers, but I'm guessing we have about 6 inches in Ames. The important thing is get everything completely clean before the negative temperatures come in later this week.
Some of my neighbors have really been waiting for the Winter Lawn Olympics to kick off.
Bee Tee Dubs, this is what I was referring to in my post about "canyons of snow" when I was a kid:
I’m headed back out at 6pm. People will test my patience tonight. If people would just slow down!!Stay safe and try to stay rested my friend!
Stay safe out there!I’m headed back out at 6pm. People will test my patience tonight. If people would just slow down!!
Another storm with heavy snow 48 hours out I'm seeing?! That's when the cold arrives.
This is nothing compared to 2009 and it's the first taste of winter as well.Friday-ish. The models have it as more of a glancing blow currently than this one.
Whatever they named this storm, it delivered. I've lived at my current place for 19 years, ain't had one bigger and it's not even close. I'll take a nice and easy 6 inches of fluffy/easy to get rid of snow please.
Just got a few snaps sent to me from someone that lives on the south side of CR. 13-14 inches throughout their entire front yard. No drifting.Friday-ish. The models have it as more of a glancing blow currently than this one.
