The PA Chapter's " Where's that Groundhog?" February 2016 Chat and B / S Thread

Whistle Pig, Groundhog, or whatever you want to call it, I hear he's to see his shadow tomorrow or something. We'll see if the furry prognosticator does better than the scientists.

That said we're already a month down this year. When will time stop moving so fast?

Bedtime for me, but you know what to do here.

Morning Jim, Keystoners. Let's hope Phil can no longer tolerate the smell of his den.

Morning Jim, Denny, Craig. A soggy start to February here, but at least it's warm. I have almost no snow on the ground now.

Good morning Pennsylvania, welcome to the 29 days of hell, formally known as February! Ours will be starting off (supposedly) tonight with a Winter Storm warning. Super.

Morning Pat. Hopefully the weather guessers got it wrong and you don't see anything out of it.

Morning Bill, I have a bad feeling they may come close with this one. They are saying blizzard conditions tomorrow morning. I'll have to see if they close the highway on me, they did in 2010 during the last blizzard, I'll have to use vacation if so.

Ugh. They've done that before here too, closed the highway that I use to get here. Makes it REAL interesting taking back roads, for sure.

I just call it good, and take a vacation day. Too far around for me to take another route.

If the option were available, I guarantee I'd be doing the same. If it's that bad out, I don't need to be out in it for sure.

The company is pretty good about that, since some of our power stations are a bit remote. It's 28 miles of open country between my house and the plant. It gets dicey out there when its windy and snowing.
