The Wrath of Old Man Winter
<sigh>
After 14 (yes, 14) inches of s*** on the weekend, it's s***ing up here again. Right now, we have 6 more inches of the stuff (again, feel free to substitute a more vulgar word). Roads are closing around town and they're telling people to not travel unless absolutely necessary.
Is it May yet?

Would all you snowmobilers please stop with the snow dances?

Oh, most definitely. If this is any indication, the resorts and ski hills up here are going to be VERY happy.Kansas Viking wrote:Got to tell you Dawn, Brenda and I sat here last weekend and looked at the weather and checked the Minnesota websites. We definitely made the right decision in not going to the Detroit game. Looks like the weather will be tough the rest of the way out now.
We're being pummeled with 10 more inches of snow. It looks like it has quit now, but that's 24 inches in four days. And we were barely plowed out from Saturday's/Sunday's storm. I am definitely not looking forward to going to work tomorrow morning. Nothing will be plowed that early.

Yes, it was lake effect snow that just sat on top of us. Some parts of the city got a lot more snow than others. The western part of Duluth got hit hardest, with something like 16" of snow, while the eastern part got about 6".
I'm tired of winter already.

That must be where Jared is at. He said he had 16.8 inches of snow. Unbelievable.DeeEss57 wrote:
