• We should now be fully online following an overnight outage. Apologies for any inconvenience, we do not expect there to be any further issues.

This better be that last snow for this winter.

With snow banks over 5', I won't have anywhere else to put the snow. They are calling for higher temps (above freezing) for next week. That should help melt some, of course then there is flooding concerns.

5' snowbanks are cute. The ones at the end of drives are so tall now that you have to creep into traffic to see if there is traffic. We no longer have sidewalks. They just gave up on those. The snowbanks by work are well over 10' tall. The ones in the parking lot have got to be at least 20'.

And its not done yet!

You have 2 story snow banks? I call shenanigans.

I'm usually working in it. I'm cool with the snow, but I'm seriously tired of falling. I'm getting too old for this shit. My wrist hurts, and my knees are sore from falling on ice. I can't wait til I end up breaking something :^/

Hitting 80 here today, wanted to wear jeans but it might be too hot

Sounds like hell... I was trudging around in the snow a couple days ago, and thinking how much I prefer that to summer, and dreading its eventual arrival.

I'm in the same boat. Getting so high that the 5hp snowblower my neighbor lets me use can't throw over the banks any more.

The smoking tunnel (we call it the smigloo) was dug when the new guy was late. Next time he's late, we'll make him dig out snow forts.

if you are in NJ and on Facebook, like a page called Severe NJ Weather. It's a one man show, an amateur meteorologist who just has a passion and a knack for nailing the forecast better than almost every major media weather projections. He utilizes multiple different types of modeling forecasts and in the last 6 months, I've seen him be the best in the biz.

he is calling for 4-8" tonight for most of northern and central nj.

Ohh man, if I worked there I would come in late for sure. I used to LOVE building snow forts.

LOL

Did I mention we also hook up a pump and make desks pee on people as another penalty? That's just the warehouse guys though. The office drones don't like the games.
