    Be interesting to see if MnDot is ready with the salt trucks. Guess we will most likely hear how they have no money.

    Really scary to think BrianK & Everts is probably more ready then MnDot.

    Everybody down there stay safe. The older we get the more the ice “hits back” when we slip and fall.

    Please drain your trailers when leaving the ramps at Everts.

    Managements nose will appreciate it! (Sure hope Dean can laugh about it…now.)

    HEY! I wasn’t going to bring it up.

    Aren’t you the guy that named it “Snowmaggedon V.30”?

    Just kidding, I hope it is a bust, I need to get to West Central Illinois tomorrow and I don’t want to do the 30 mph, white knuckle drive.

    My driveway is still clean as a bell, not to worry though I just bought 2 jars of peanut butter and I have 8 boxes of girl scout cookies to wait it out…

    I am that guy ….only because the professional “meteorologists” prophesied such doom and gloom. Half inch of freezing rain, 15″ of snow….thunder….sleet, toads & locusts……cats & dogs living together…. the kind of hype that got me leaping from the bed this morning, springing to the window like an 8yr old on x-mas morning. Only to find out Santa forgot where I lived.

    Oh well, such is life. Good luck on your journey south. Drive safe, and watch out for the guy tailgating you…..he’ll never see that crater sized pothole you subtly swerved to avoid.

    Rain and sleet mixed here on the ridge in Crawford County, WI. Also lightning too. I have icicles about 3 inches long on my deck railing. Started about 7:15 this morning.

    We just had lightning and thunder freezing rain here in NE Iowa, can’t even see out the east window because of ice covering it. Also at 8:00 this morning it came across the scanner that a dog food plant west of Oelwein was hit by lightning, there was an explosion, and part of the building was gone. 6 people were working and everyone was accounted for.

    If there is snow work to be done why are you eating cookies and playing on the puter?

    The real question we should be asking ourselves is:

    Did we get all the doggy droppings picked up before the new blanket drops?
