Title: Getting ready for winter.... in April
Post by: pensrock on April 22, 2012, 04:20:52 PM
Well we had no winter only a couple storms of 2-4 inches each then they melted. But they are calling for 8-14 inches starting tonight and thru Tue. morning. With the leaves on the trees it will probably knock branches down and cause power outages. Since I never ran the snowblower I went out and started it and checked it out. Went and got some groceries, I'm as ready as I can be, bring it Mother Nature... I ain't scared.  :)

Good luck with the snow partner, we have friends that live down in southern Maryland that own a place in Warren county and left a few days ago to go up and check on a few of their gas wells and both are up in years, I sure hope they make out alright..

Good luck! I hope it is a lot less then what the forecasters are calling for. If it is 6-inches of accumulation or less, for this time of year I would put it in the category of "If Mother Nature put it there, she can take it away herself".

I do have a snow blower but cannot shovel due to my bad wing. Still can't get the insurance to allow a MRI so I have been dealing with a lot of pain for over six months now. So theres a good chance I'll due as you say, she put it there she can take it away.  ;)

When I heard about that forecast I immediately thought two friends would be happy.  One is Pens because he's finally going to get the snow he's been wanting.  The other is NePaS because he's not! ;D

It's all Ricks fault, since he moved we have not got any snow.  ;D
So far this so called storm is yet another failed forcast. I really believe the forcasts 10-15 years ago were much more accurate than they are now. My grass is not even covered yet. All the schools closed thinking we were to get a storm but nothing. I'm sick of the forcasters crying wolf all the time.  >:(
