Let's see if I can make my first snow watch for the weekend, since I'll be getting home on Friday

[firemoose827 324]

Well, I work for the Highway Department, atleast untill January 1st anyway, and I hope the snow stays away!!! lol Im sick of plowing and sanding all night just for a few inches. And thats what our superintendant does, we stay out all night even if its a few inches just to make sure. But, I just found out the other day, (Funny you brought this up now pcfdrfd700) that I received a promotion at work for the Village of CObleskill, I will now be the Deputy Codes Officer in charge of fire inspections in all multifamily residential and commercial occupancies effective January First, with a substantial raise too. So after January 1st it can snow all it wants!!! lol

Stay Safe All

[Guest EFFP411]

I don't think I would mind kicking back with some hot choclate and watching the snow fall with some good movies playing this weekend (especially since I don't have to shovel at the current moment!)

My camera's also reved up to shoot some DPW/Highway Trucks in action on Central Ave!

From the yahoo.com weather section:

Thursday: Cloudy with periods of snow during the afternoon. High 34F. Winds light and variable. Chance of snow 80%. Some snow accumulation possible.

...can someone tell me what the hell SOME SNOW ACCUMULATION means? i'd prefer the answer in inches...i’d even deal with centimeters!!

I have been studying weatherman language for some time know, and I think I can help you with this. What some snow accumulation means is anywhere from a trace of snow to 3 feet is possible, if it evens snows at all because some times northern high low fronts push the storm off to sea...

The forcast from News 12 calls for 4-8 inches of snow.

Hey, you mind as well take out a Crystal ball and use that to figure it out. Just remember, the weather people have a 50/50 shot at getting it somewhat right.

[BFD1054 1,552]

I work for DPW (full-time Sanitation/equipment operator when it snows ), so i wont mind a little snow since i could use the extra $$$ around the holidays. But im with Jonesy all the way. The money is great from the OT, but god is it boring to plow and salt in circles around town all night! I dont mind going in to throw salt down for a bit, especially on the weekend (double-time), but once you drop the plow, you know you're in for a long night lol! By the way they are talking, sounds like my weekend will suck.

I was suppose to go to my buddies house in the Dirty Jerz Saturday for a party, but it looks like i'll have to wait til i get outta work to have a few cold ones :angry: .

*BTW, Jonesy, congrats on the promotion, sounds like an awesome job brother, best of luck!

To those who must drive in this crap, like those of you who are coming home from school for the holidays, be careful & drive safe and slow!
