MAG5035 Posted February 20, 2019 Author Share Posted February 20, 2019 Lol this started 40 min ago and there's already about a half inch of sleet accumulated. In the thick of the heavy precip right now. The streets/roadways that were in semi good shape have re-caved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to find or set something up for better measurement later. Had max depth of 5” and melting down now to see liquid content which I should have done a few hours ago as the snow let up. Current depth now that there is a layer of ice is closer to 4.5”. I’ve basically been outside since 2pm. Everything here is ice crusted. I’m still at 28 with freezing rain.

I was like look here 1 your not my dept supervisor 2 I dont have a vehicle that can drive in snow up to my doors. 3 if i feel like im forced to come to work or ill be fired and if i get in a accident cause of it your held liable. so unless your going to pick me up in a lifted truck you better calm down. with that said id rather drive in 2 feet of snow vs ice. Mind you this post under is more about snow. but if you did drive to work and get in a accident do to no fault of your own but because road conditions were not safe. Also does any one remember when a state of emergency meant if a cop pulled you over you got a ticket if you were not essential personal. https://www.shrm.org/resourcesandtools/legal-and-compliance/state-and-local-updates/pages/snow-lawsuits.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
