Good morning Cory and Troy.

Usually that thunder snow means it is really snowing a lot because it is in the middle of the heavy moisture in the storm. I've seen it once her that I remember. But wasn't snowing crazy hard

Good morning Jay and the rest of the gang!

I bet by 1500 you should be fine Dave. Seems like it dumped a lot of mixed crap and just straight snow so accumulations are lower than expected. It's melting from the bottom up too. Safe travels!

From the radar, looks like it is still snowing in MN.
How much you get so far?

It is snowing again Jim. It was rain on the way to work.

Really depends on where you are. From the Twin Cities and south probably 4-10". More out west by Troy.

Hello Cory.

Good morning guys!

Finally got snow moved at the house and just finshed here at the shop in town. That was some wet heavy crap to move. I am guessing we got about a foot of snow give or take. It is still snowing but just flurries as of now.

A bit of a delay getting out of Charlotte. To many flights delayed just slowing it all down.

Heavy and wet. No sod! I used the blower at home and set the skids up high so I left about an inch and a half below the blower so no gravel was picked up.

that is a lot harder to do when plowing, especially over uneven ground

Good evening. Had a great evening visiting with most of the group. Great dinner and even better company.
