Flyinfool Posted December 9, 2009 Share #1 Posted December 9, 2009 Another big blew-it by the forecasters. I went to bed last night expecting to have all kinds of fun playing in the 8-14 inches of snow that was being predicted for the last week. All I heard on the news was about this monster storm coming, the Great White Death, gloom and doom, dogs and cats living together, ........... Live reporters scattered all over the area, a reporter at the salt piles, reporters by all of the plow trucks standing by, reporters at major intersections, ......... Well I woke up this mourning nice and early to have time to deal with the pinheads on the road for my 20+ mile commute, and when I opened the door to leave there was nothing, not a single bit of snow on any paved surface and Maybe a half inch on the grass, and I did not find any snow anywhere on the drive in to work! I realize that there were some people that got hammered like Madison WI with 17 inches down and another 6 expected with 40 mph winds just to keep it interesting. I feel cheated. I like snow. Its fun to drive in. Yes I am a little demented. OK rant over, I'll let everyone else get back to digging out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snaggletooth Posted December 9, 2009 Share #2 Posted December 9, 2009 I shoveled the other day to get the car in the garage. I shoveled yesterday to get out of the garage. I shoveled yesterday evening to get back into the garage. I shoveled last night so i won't have to shovel so much in the morning to get out of the garage. I'm gonna have to shovel some more in the morning to get back out again so I can go to work. And then it started snowing sideways. *^$^#$%%# I gave up shoveling this morning after backing my car out to the street, (after spending an hour to clear my driveway of the 3 ft of snow drifts) and promptly high centered it. Another hour to shovel the snow out from under it and then back into the garage. I love Nebraska So in short.......I found your freaking SNOW! Come on down!

eagleeye Posted December 9, 2009 Share #3 Posted December 9, 2009 I'm an hour and a half west of you, flyingfool, and I've got your 8-14"!!!!!!!!!!!, and it's still coming down. Along with the high winds. My body is in pain after two hours of digging out this morning. I'm thinking a tom and jerry and a wirlpool would do the trick. I'd post a pic, but we all know what it looks like. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flyinfool Posted December 9, 2009 Author Share #7 Posted December 9, 2009 I can only hope. I love lake effect snow where we can get 10 inches of partly cloudy with no warning. I just had to rub it in a little, here I am right in the middle of this "major" snow storm an nuttin to show for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Bob Posted December 9, 2009 Share #8 Posted December 9, 2009 We got a foot or better in Fox Lake. But, thanks to the antlerless deer hunt this weekend, they won't even open the snowmobile trails till monday. I guess we'll just join Eagle Eye, er, let me rephrase that, do like Eagle Eye and jump in the hot tub with a cocktail and wait it out. Later, Scooter Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could save a lot of work if you just left the car out in the drive. Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
