    I try to be...

    Once I get a permanent truck I should be able to. I've been bouncing around a bit right now

    It sure does! I'm actually at Lancaster Tank Wash for a sanitation right now, and I'm surprised at how little snow is left on the ground here. Lots of pure bare areas around, not just the south facing slopes. Nice sunset tonight. Can't see most of it, though...

    51 beautiful degrees here in Voyagerland!
  5. Voyager
    One of my favorites. Steam, snow and bitter cold temperatures make for an impressive show...

    Up here I measured 11" in the backyard yesterday, so today's 5+ took us back up to a 16" snowpack.
  7. Voyager
    Just measured. The snow has stopped. No taint at all, pure snow and 5.25 inches. Roads (the hills) are shut down all around Tamaqua because of stuck tractor-trailers. 309, 54, 209, 443. Anywhere there's a hill, someone is stuck.

    No offense guys, but I need it. My surgical shoulder is still sore. I can work without causing damage, but just trying to layer up for my job is painful. I usually go thermal shirt, t-shirt, sweatshirt. Then a coat when I'm loading or unloading the tanker. Putting all that on and off is quite a workout. It'll be nice if even for a couple of days I can shed some of the layers and be a bit more comfortable.

    Unofficially (measured on a shoveled sidewalk) I have 3 inches already!

    All the models in the 12z suite look to give a solid 6-8 here in Voyagerland...

    Future radar for my location has it snowing here until about 4pm. Then the usual drying out that rides up the I-81 corridor commences. Which begs a question from me. What causes that feature to take place so often? We many times dry out before other areas of central, eastern, and northeastern PA. It'll mostly be finished here but out to the west of the Susquehanna, snow will continue for a couple to a few hours.

    Just started snowing lightly here. We'll see, I guess, where we end up later this afternoon.

    Thanks Don. I might be off, though. The boss/owner would rather we and the trucks be safe than to risk a crash.
  14. Voyager
    Yes. Far eastern Schuylkill County.
  15. Voyager
    Don, my point and click forecast for Tamaqua (just a few miles beyond Mt Holly's CWA) is for 4-8 inches. We shall see...
  16. Voyager
    Most are closed up here already.

    @Blizzard of 93 I saw that my forecast and the advisory wording don't quite match up. That's why I was wondering where the sudden increase came from. All day long, my point and click matched the advisory at 3-5.
  18. Voyager
    Not sure where it came from, but CTP bumped my point and click forecast total from 3-5 to 4-8 for tomorrow.
  19. Voyager
    Yes, I know what it's called, but we could get a sunny day break once in awhile...
  20. Voyager
    Here's the video version of that...lol
  21. Voyager
    What gives with this snow? I woke this morning to light snow/flurries, and they've continued now for about 3 hours.
  22. Voyager
    That would be me...

    Where I work, in the owner's mind, drivers and equipment are worth more than a load of water. Add in the lawsuits if you happen to spin out, or in our case, jacknife, and it just isn't worth it to be out.
  24. Voyager
    Where is this round two coming from? Radar looks like crap right now...
  25. Voyager
    Well, at least I'm off work tonight. I called the boss and he said stay home. Day shift drivers all quit early and parked, and he saw no reason to mess around and have issues later with night shift. While I could use the money, I'd rather be safe and not get injured or damage a truck. So far, we got 1 to 2 inches. I didn't bother to measure this one. It had stopped for about 2 hours, but has picked up again. Mostly snow with a few pellets mixed in.
