    We need that, especially in the liquid form. Some of our wells have really taken a hit with the dryness, and now frozen precipitation and ground. One of the wells can only handle one truck per hour. If we don't space the trucks, we'll draw from the ground and not the silo. If the water lever gets below the pump in the bore hole, we'll burn it up, which will be a major and expensive problem. Even with the warm up, I'm not sure how much of that liquid gets into the water table and how much runs off.

    I'm thinking we warm for the holiday weeks when I have multiple days off. Then, come January, when it's back to regular work weeks, we tank again. It's just my luck...

    I am really looking forward to this warm up. In addition to frozen caps and valves in the trailer, we have to deal with an icy ground truth, and salt just won't cut through that much ice because each load puts more water on the ground. The is what we deal with at the loading locations.

    Dropped into the singles if you don't do the official round up/down. 9.9 at 7am.

    Lots of single digits on personal weather stations this morning along the Susquehanna and in the Harrisburg area this morning. Coldest one I saw was +2 in Holiday Park near Linglestown. Here in my backyard, though, I'm sitting at 14.

    Good on him. I could use some conditioning myself. I'm quite out of shape. Shovelling yesterday kicked my ass.

    There you go antagonizing people again... Just kidding. I chuckled when I read this. And I see Sauss thought it was funny, too.

    I'd either scroll on by or just answer the question. It wouldn't bother me. Like itstrainingtime, I don't do most social media. Facebook, YouTube, and here is all I do. I still don't see anything wrong with what Canderson posted. I really can't figure out your beef with him. Everyone else, me included, like and respect the guy.
  9. Voyager
    My God, no I shouldn't have.

    What happened when the calendar flipped to January in those years?
  11. Voyager
    Yup. That's all it was. There was nothing offensive or hurtful in any of the posts during that time frame.
  12. Voyager
    Absolutely. I saw it the same way you did.
  13. Voyager
    I, and I doubt that anyone other than YOU, didn't see it as a character assassination at all.
  14. Voyager
    You started the f****** trash with your posts.
  15. Voyager
    Your attitude ruins the forum more than Canderson's does six days from Sunday which means that he doesn't, and hasn't, ruin(ed) the forum at all, ever. Nope. I don't either. He was just posting what was transpiring in his backyard/neighborhood.
  16. Voyager
    Dude......really?
  17. Voyager
    Canderson's good people, and nearly everyone, myself included, have deep respect for him and his posts. He doesn't deserve this kind of treatment.

    Glad you finally got a decent snow event!
  19. Voyager
    So this snow snow plus the previous two has put me at 11.5" for the season. 9.5" is my current snowpack, so since 12/2 we only lost 2 inches to melting/compaction. That's quite a testament to how cold the first half of December has been.

    It just doesn't want to stop snowing here...
  21. Voyager
    You nailed it for down there. Up here you were a little low, but still better than most others, including the NWS. Not sure how we ended up getting into the same numbers that were forecasted for SEPA. Maybe slower storm movement, stronger development, more northerly track? Who knows, but it was definitely an overachiever north of the Blue Mountain.

    So, last night, with the evening forecast, we didn't even have an advisory here in Schuylkill County. Truth is we ended up close to meeting warning criteria. Major bust with most of the forecasts yesterday.
  23. Voyager
    So it appears that I finished up with 5.5" with my unofficial sidewalk measurement. Definitely an overachiever here. I captured WGAL's forecast map from yesterday, and they had me at C-1 and CTP had me at 1-2. As for quitting drinking, the thing I appreciate the most is not waking up with a hangover headache the next morning.
  24. Voyager
    5am and I wake up to this! Just a bit more than any forecast for my backyard. Quite the over performer. The back edge is close, but may sneak out another quarter to half inch as it's still snowing lightly here.
  25. Voyager
    So I see that CTP finally hoisted an advisory for Schuylkill County and upped accumulations to 2-4 inches. Below is the original forecast which, unless it were to stop snowing now, has already busted. Tonight Snow showers, mainly before 3am. Low around 18. Calm wind becoming northwest around 5 mph after midnight. Chance of precipitation is 90%. Total nighttime snow accumulation of 1 to 2 inches possible.
