November 2015 blizzard thread

Just got done shoveling a foot of global warming off the driveway.

I think I'd rather watch a dancing monkey during the weather forecasts. At least I'd get something out of that time that someone regurgitates what some unreliable computer models spit out.

LOL at fitz19d's post but sighing at my own experience. Saturday, running around on the RWD car with Blizzaks, had nary a problem. Passed numerous cars and trucks that had collided, crashed, spun out, or gotten stuck and was able to maneuver as if the pavement were dry. Today, I pull out of the driveway in my Expedition in 4-High, notice the garage door wasn't closing properly (snow blew in and was jamming it up) so tried back in again to go clear the door -- Expedition slipped and I catch my mirror on the mailbox. Saw an SUV do a 180 into the median while southbound on Powers ... geez people, just take it slow and easy!

I had to go from Golden to Aurora and back this morning and I saw some seriously scary moves today.
I could not believe the spaces people were trying to fit into on the interstate.

Worst guy was someone in a white durango weaving in and out of traffic. I commented to my wife how so many folks were in a ditch and accident just due to bad luck and in some cases, minimal fault of their own, but this guy will get off free driving like it is a rally race or something.

Up early, cleaned the cars and headed to work. Little honda fit made it to the light rail station.

Train to Union, mall shuttle spinning along as usual, but I get there. Hour earlier than normal.

returning home;

Many allowed to go early by 3pm. I had to stay til 5.

Started to step off the lightrail at the station, missed/slipped and went right out the door like I was on a Slip and Slide. Face smacked into the handrail on the way out.

Icing a bruised elbow at the moment, we'll see how bad everything hurts in the morning. DOH! #@&$&*@$%!

12 inches of snow and 16 degrees? Screw it go to the range.

I hear ya. Obviously not today, of course. Winter is the best for some trigger time.

Went to work on unplowed roads. Shoveled snow when I got there. Shoveled snow again after lunch. Drove home on much improved roads. Shoveled more snow when I got home.

F**k a bunch of snow.

Went to work at 6, roads weren't too bad. Went to the dentist at 9 and the roads were effed.
