Was going to go out and do some DoorDash tonight. But the roads look bad and it looks like there’s some crashes starting to appear on Google Maps. Not going to be a part of that shitshow even if the money is good.

not worth it. Just wait until we get 4+ inches unplowed on the road Sunday night into Monday morning. These idiots will wreck everything in site. Many of the inexperienced drivers will basically take out there 40 to 80 grand + trucks and SUVs and drive them like as shown in the misguided commercials and end up wrecking their vehicles thinking they can drive on anything. They are all in for rude awakening come Monday when the Sunday night snows do not melt very well even with salt on the pavement. Tuesday morning will be wreck city as these vehicles also do not drive well on icy snow packed road surfaces too. Snow packed icy intersections will be common in the rural roads. The interstates should be fine but those local backroads that many drivers use for short cuts will be snow packed as the plows will take longer to to get to them. Going to be fun because everything will freeze hard as a rock something we have not seen much of in the last 20+ years. Major Rivers like the Lehigh and others will begin to freeze up, ice jams later?

I ordered a DoorDash while the snow was still light. Ended up with about an inch later and roads probably aren’t great.

I was out about an hour ago when the snow was ending and the roads were just fine. The back roads had some snow cover but the intermediate and major roads were totally wet

Ended up with about an inch...

It snowed for 11 hours straight today. We got just over an inch. I'm not sure I've ever experienced an event quite like that where it snows for so long but we hardly get any accumulation.

Here it lasted almost 10 hours, from before noon to a little after nine. Slowly whitened things up very nicely! Wound up with 0.8" here, so about 0.08" per hour, lol. Gladly received!

Season total is 4.9".

ECM has a nice ice storm next Friday. Deep winter.

 

We need a February with mountains of plowed snow 15' high and 40' wide in mall parking lots topped with freezing rain to form glaciers. Love those years when these are still around in late April and early May.

We would play King of the Mountain on every pile we could find.
