  1. I'll find out on Monday if it looks the same way upstream in Herndon and Sunbury.
  2. Thanks! Just an FYI though, those aren't some really cool graphics on the side. It's a reflection of the snow bank across the street...lol
  3. So here's the new Jeep in its new environment!
  4. It's amazing how close you and I are in temperatures most days. My low was indeed -4 (-4.4) and I'm currently at -1 (-0.9) at 8:45am.
  5. Dropped a little more to -4.4 which is the low so far for the morning. Can I go a little lower, or did I hit the bottom as it's already 7:30am? And for fun, I looked around the state and there's a lot of double digit sub-zero lows, including -18 at Tobyhanna, -19 at Gouldsboro, and -20 at Thornhurst, all on personal stations in the Poconos...
  6. It's -4 (-3.8 exactly) on my station this morning, so far.
  7. Look at Augusta, home of the Masters golf tournament... 30.2 inches.
  8. And then 60 and heavy rain a week later if I remember correctly.
  9. I think this is why it's so cold. Look at the name of the company that makes the trailer I'm pulling...
  10. 8.8 at my house. Not sure what it is in Tower City, but it's
  11. Thanks. I wonder if Tower City got the same. That half inch may be enough to drift across the access road to my truck loading area.
  12. So if nearly all the short range models are showing less that one inch, where is CTP getting a 1-3 range for my location? How much we get and when it stops will determine where I run tomorrow.
  13. So it looks like 1-3 for me. Just in time to mess up the morning commute. Looks like another late start for me again tomorrow morning.
  14. In the right pattern there'd be one or two per week...
  15. I have to wear 4 shirts, jeans, long john's, and a hoodie when it's this cold because I have to be outside during the loading and unloading. Layering up like that every day gets old after awile.
  16. Hopefully that's the pattern breaker storm. I need a week or two of 50's. I'm sick of layering up with a half a load of laundry every day...
  17. I don't need this. I was told by the guy that plows where I load that if we keep getting snow, chains will be required to get in, and especially, out of the loading location. The boss isn't keen on the idea, and with two bum shoulders, I couldn't throw truck iron even if I was willing to. So, I don't know what the future of this particular run is going to hold going forward if we stay cold and snowy...
  18. Thanks! Nope, and I'll enjoy playing in the snow, just not the first night...lol
  19. I need no snow Friday night. I pick this up, and don't really want it's maiden voyage to be in a snowstorm. That's for later after I put some dry miles on it...
  20. So I am in a temperature holding pattern at the moment. It's been stuck on 35.1 for awhile now. I had 3.5" of snow before it mixed and switched to sleet. I'd say about another inch of the mix fell after that (rain compaction likely, though) for a total that I'm calling at my house of 4.5 inches. It's not official by any means, but it's in the ballpark. So far, I'm still at home. Only one driver went in so far, and he said that if no others show up, he's going home. He said roads in my area had heavy slush on them and were rutted. One would think that the plows and the salt with a fairly high temperature would do them well, unless there's not a lot of plows out due to the holiday and schools being off. Anyway, I'm taking a "wait a bit" approach as to whether I go in.
