Just make sure you get to the polls and vote for Whitbeck if you're in the 33rd Senate District.

I've got a mile of dirt road to clear, but the ATV's are full and plows mounted.  Should be fun, just the right amount of snow.

I wish they would cancel work.

I already know that when I get there, half of my team will have called out, and the other half will leave after a few hours. They pulled that shit on me last year, and didn't tell me. I was like "um... where are my fellow team members?"

Well, the feds are closed.  So I'll be working late the rest of the week and likely on Saturday too.

But I'll be able to vote shortly rather than after work.







Interesting, my membership expired on the 19th yet it still shows I'm a team member.

not worried about the snow.. but a water treatment plant and -15° windchill is a recipe for disaster.

the urban assault vehicle is loaded with recovery gear and 30 gallons of fuel.. maybe make some coin on the way to work tonight

New Kent has yet to see a flake of snow.  We did have a quick rain shower and the temp went from 40 to 33* in about an hour.  Just cloudy and getting windy.  Every school system within 50 miles of RVA was closed today except New Kent (and they let out at 1200).  Snow day for no snow.  Just like being closed for being too cold a week or so ago.   Can't wait for June and the schools close because it will be too hot.



BRING ON SOME SNOW!

It's not the size of the driveway, it's what gets parked in it...

The temp just started dropping dramatically in Isle of Wight.  And the wind just picked up quite a bit too.   Bring on the snow!!!

Still snowing in Fredericksburg. I just shoveled and there seems to be 1/8 to 1/4 back where I just did.

I also haven't seen a damn plow on my street all day. The mail guy managed to get here, but I doubt my Honda Civic can handle it. Need to get that xterra

Drove from RVA to Roanoke, Ran into snow in on the way to Roanoke.  Stopped snowing it Roanoke, then I headed up to Culpeper,  Ran into snow on the way there.  Started coming down quite a bit.  Then headed back to RVA, only to catch snow on my way here.  Still snowing currently.  I can't seem to escape it.
