That like a Defcon 4, still pretty good type of deal, or like Quadrant 4, set your tourney resume on fire type of tier 4?
No, he is saying the storm started (the source) in tier four. That would be fourth floor of the tiers in Parks library.
You have been banned.
Reason: Can not fix own snowblower.
Your ban will be lifted once you have repaired the snowblower.
Even if i knew how, i would have had to shovel first in order to get out of my driveway to get new parts (the starter cord broke)
Spousal unit just went out to make the first pass on our 1/5 mile shared lane for the folks that may be coming home from work soon. Thank goodness for the bobcat! We've only got about 3 inches, but the lane drifts pretty heavy in a few spots.
Lots more snow than expected in southern Iowa and probably less in northern Iowa. Not going to get as much freezing rain as expected. Hopefully just enough to crust the snow over.
I'll be having the fun with drifting across the driveway when the wind shifts from out of the NW later tonight/tomorrow. will hopefully be able to really test the 44" blower and tractor out.
Nevermind. Just transitioned over to freezing rain. Not sure how we get rain when the thermometer shows 25 degrees. Radar still showing snow.
Have you been out on those gravel roads? Where I work, a small rural district, we had one bus slide off in the ditch and another was taking forever to do the route. We did not cancel but we should have delayed.
Both that like to ***** about schools closing or delaying because of weather forget one important item. Not only are the teachers and aides driving on the stuff, but a lot of inexperienced kids are also out on the roads.
Poor roads/weather and inexperienced drives/kids can led to death and injury. Better to be safe than sorry. A day of school is not worth anyone's life.
