Heading back to the garage now. This sucks and we didn't get the worst of it.

I'm at the shop with nothing to do. I may go home before it comes down. I'm watching the radar and I'm predicting the ice and snow to be here before noon.

It rained then froze as it landed until about 6am and then it turned to snow. The plows were out all night salting and plowing what looked like water. It didn't matter. The roads still sucked buck2 What should have been a 20 minute drive back to the office took 45 mins. Damn near an hour to get home instead of the usual 25 minutes. :blink1: Locks and cabinet doors froze. I went through 3-12oz cans of deicer tonight trying to get an underground vault open. More fun tonight. :idiot2:

9 different states have blizzard warnings right now, this storm has caused winter storm warnings and or blizzard warnings over a 2100 mile area.    We are supposed to get a foot of snow or so with 40mph winds.   Donnie in Sedalia could see as much as 30".

We had freezing rain yesterday afternoon and evening but it quit pretty early. It started freezing rain & sleet here about 5 this morning. It's currently changing between sleet and snow; we've got about 1/2" of mostly sleet on the ground right now. Blue, they are calling for you to have 15-20" of snow, the same as us, except no ice for you. I stayed home, along with most of the rest of our workforce. I'm not driving 28 miles to turn around and spend 4 or 5 hours driving home this evening. I can log in from home just like I'm at work.

I came in today.
I was surprised how many guys actually came in.
I expected 1 or 2, but 6 of 9 came in with one going home around 10:00AM

I'm still here, but plan on cutting out as soon as I see an exit.
