Snowmageddon!

[DoggyDaddy]

My boss tried really hard to get me to come into work today. "It won't be that bad." he kept saying. Our company tell us that if we don't feel safe driving, to stay home or park the truck. We had two drivers that did work. I'm keeping track of what they send across our group messages. It's not good.

Ain't no way I'd be pulling the loads that you pull in this stuff BT. Especially not with my Hyundai.

You aren't pulling a load, unless pulling a BT load.

We've just changed over to freezing rain and sleet, so I went out and put down some ice melt on the sidewalk and part of the driveway. Tomorrow is trash pickup day, but I didn't even bother putting the can out today. I don't think the trash trucks will be running tomorrow.

Don't get me wrong. It's a spunky little car, but I think I'd need a special hitch or something.

They aren't running here today, or tomorrow. They said pick up will be on your next scheduled day.

I think they make a roof rack adapter.

That's what I figured. I haven't looked or heard anything though. I do know I don't want my trash can buried by a snow plow if one comes down our street.

That would be awesome! I wonder if they have a 5th wheel/gooseneck hitch adapter too? Being able to tow a 5th wheel with the Hyundai would be so cool.

Not that it matters much to my INGO friends. Its still raining in Springfield, OH. It'll be interesting.

Thanks for the report. Grew up in Dayton and was wondering how Dayton/Springfield was doing? There are several former/current Buckeyes here on INGO.

The sleet has finally shown up in SE Indy.

It’s crazy to me how 10 miles made a massive difference. At 106/Michigan it was rain turning to sleet at 4:50. By the time I hit 334 streets were icing over. By the time I got to 267 ice was everywhere and it was snowing hard. Lafayette, another 30miles NW of our house y’all got a crap ton of snow.

9" here in Syracuse. My employer got me a room so I don't have to drive to and from Fort Wayne.

 

[Michigan Slim]

I left Fort Wayne doing 80 mph this morning. I pulled in to work in Syracuse doing 28 mph in four wheel drive.

No snow in Indy currently but the streets are legitimately iced.

Switched from rain to freezing rain right around 5 o'clock in Hamilton county. Just went outside to get the mail, the driveway has a solid half inch of ice cap.

Snow stopped here for the evening. Roughly a foot of snow and drifts are 3-4 foot high. Wind is brutal. Saying another 3-6" for tomorrow starting around 4-5am

Edit: They downgraded tomorrow to 1-4" additional, so that's a plus

Wonder where the weather is?
