Will melt tomorrow on roads, but will need treatment prior to morning commute. Plow guy asking for a forecast should hire you lol, give you 10% of every contract. Easy 500 bucks on the side a storm with a good contractor. Money to be made in post storm analysis too. Man I wish I had gone into Met instead of Envi. Under the table ching can be had with the right contractors 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowgrowth looks putrid too. Some deeper lift comes in right before the flip, but I think we'd need to hang onto snow until 07-08z to get 4-5" and I don't see it. Agree.

Just busting you, the big guys who do the big box stores and malls pay for the advice you get here and they often get bad advice. One of my good friends is a big rig plow guy. He has hated this winter as his pay is based on hrs unlike the contract guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My brother used to plow (ran a landscaping business that he eventually sold for big $$$) and had contracts. He got royally screwed over by a big chain. He still won’t buy their 99 cent coffee.

Couple inches which sadly, is as good as anything I’ve seen snow wise back home. Nice dude TWC pimped 6 inches all day yesterday. Epic fail which they just brush off.
