  1. Yeah it does. The worst part is that I don't even get to enjoy the fruit of my labor. Someone else will.
  2. If my truck stays parked (which it almost always does on the weekend) it stays clean, so yesterday I was done early and decided to wash the trailer and then planned on going in this morning on my off day and wash the tractor. Now I'm told it will be used this weekend. With the rain chance tomorrow, it'll likely get all trashed with road grime making the two hours (and much shoulder pain) I spent yesterday a colossal waste of time. Beyond pissed off right now...
  3. Now I know what my new avatar's gonna be...lol
  4. I honestly think I could have written this post myself. I love warm mornings and not needing a jacket.
  5. In that case I'm hoping for a blizzard on 10/1/21...
  6. I know it does. The surfaces of any areas that didn't pond up are dry already...
  7. I swear, if I see any posts saying "we need rain" I'm gonna hunt you all down and
  8. All I know is that it's chilly this morning. I have no weather station readings at the moment. I had to cut power to the house as I had water in the breaker box. The Ambient Weather monitor doesn't have a battery back-up.
  9. Well, my last rain measurement was 5.77". It will be my final measurent although we may have gotten a tenth or so more. I had shut the power off to the house, thus shutting down my inside weather station unit. Our breaker box was dripping water as I believe the outside weather cap sealing off the main line coming into the house was leaking. Didn't want and don't need a short circuit and/or a fire.
  10. 4.21 so far in Tamaqua. Made it to Allentown. Now not sure if I can get back to our yard to park the truck for the night.
  11. It showed as open. Now it's closed. At Exit 100... Guess I'll be going through Pine Grove.
  12. Google Maps showing its open now. Don't really want to run anymore back roads if can help it...
  13. Any reason why (or if) I81 southbound is closed at the I78 interchange?
  14. 2.83" now in the Tamaqua home gauge. Each time I drove my route from TC to Sunbury, the streams were higher and the runoff stronger. Pillow is soggy and needs to be wrung out...lol
  15. 1.44" in the gauge in Tamaqua. Pouring rain in Tower City right now. Most significant stream flows and yard ponding were up, ironically, from just south of Pillow to Sunbury.
  16. 0.47" as of 7:45am. I'm in Tower City right now loading, and rain is light to moderate at times. I guess I'll see how the day progresses.
  17. I figured that stretch of road was prone to flooding. Not much elevation above or real estate between the road and the creek. I have to go through there 5 times tomorrow. Two up loaded and three back empty. Usually it's only three runs through there, but my last load which always goes to Allentown will be coming from Tower City instead of Hazleton.
  18. I think I'm on the southern and eastern edge of it. I'm doing my Thursday Tower City to Sunbury tomorrow. I'll have to give Pillow reports. Just wondering how fast that little creek south of town along 225 rises during heavy events. And of more concern is 147 up between Mandata and Herndon.
