Man, I am off my game

I nearly messaged you asking if you wanted to start the thread, but then I just got greedy I guess. Lol

So work from home Tuesday?

That's wild. It almost looks like the storm is doing surgical strikes on the neighborhoods. Crazy watching th etransformers blow out, too.

If you have that option, it might be a good call (I don't unfortunately :( )

Where is the weather map in the OP?

Always sunny and 75 degrees in Olathe!!!!

It is ok. I spent the day sleeping and getting rid of another migraine. Also, waiting for the front to pass through. Damn Barometer. Check out the drop since Wednesday.

Another of it hitting and missing a bunch of boats.

Bowser, if you copy the code from the other threads, the map will show.
If it doesnt, I can get a code for you.

I could go for a snow day on Tuesday. I'm sure school will be cancelled 48 hrs ahead of time with the threat of accumulation

You guys be safe. Stay off the slick snow packed icy roads.

Added, thank you.

You must have sent that telepathically by mistake, because that thought popped to mind out of the blue. Lol

Thank you.

Thanks!

Here's the forecast from the Big 4 in Kansas City.

Shout out to KMBC. Hey, ... whatcha drawin' on the screen there, Katie Horner?

I want the weather Armageddon thread

Out of power, but this is what Bueh and I get to deal with:

that's a nice rocket ship she drew IDK what you're seeing that's obviously a rocket ship or maybe a fish

Holy crap dude! That really sucks. Nothing like that in SC Kansas. Be safe brother.

I have a flight in about 3 hours. Looks like it’s a go

We are masochists. We live for this shit. (or want to die, can't really tell sometimes)

Here comes the wind and snow for Iowa.
The first snows are always the worst. Drivers forget that, "Hey Snow and Ice are really slippery".

Here comes? Shit it's been snowing here all day.

Some of you lot wouldn't make it in an actually cold and snowy climate. ;)

(And you shouldn't try. It sucks.)

Anything west of Russell is a shitshow, currently. And by the looks of it, south and west.

In NE Iowa. Just starting here.
Be safe all.

Yeah, no shit. The snow doesn't scare me, but all the ****tards who drive like they just moved up from Guatemala last week do.

We're supposed to get 6" to 12" starting tonight through tomorrow.

65 mph wind with this stuff.

I swear to god we’re ****ing reeruned for living out here.

It's apparently a Phoenix thing where your furnace doesn't work if it's too cold outside.

...

Just got upgraded to 8-12” with 65mph winds.

I can barely contain my excitement.

And if Bearcat keeps poking the bear I’m going to come down there and shove an icicle up his tailpipe.

One of my friends who now lives in Arizona was bitching about how cold it is down there on Facebook.

My reply:

:bolt:



...it was like 5⁰ in Flagstaff this morning (at 7k feet), pretty crazy the difference within a couple hour drive around here.

Yep. We're dumb as ****.

Last snow came with no wind. It made me horny.

This sucks 13 kinds of ass.

I have power though.

FWIW, they've officially closed schools in Olathe and Overland Park Tuesday.

Thinking about hooking the pto generator up. It’s a ****ing job and I don’t feel like it. Yet.

Dad hooked it up at the farm but no chance I’m going out there to run it. **** that noise.

How many inches is KC supposed to get? Glad Im down in Biloxi/Dallas/Phx/Vegas for January. Sounds awful. Don't want my KC house to lose power and ice up though while Im snowbirding

Does anyone have the gif of the dog taking a shit while watching it blow away on ice? Need a smile on my face. Thanks

5-6 end times for kc

This is the only window that wasn't iced over. Notice the neighbors flag. I ****ing hate wind. You can click the video to run it.

I hope you make it out alive

The old timers will call a school reunion walkin

I saw a report of another 3-5 inches on Friday - so now have to decide if I'm driving up for the game or taking the train.

I-70 closed from Junction City KS to the CO border. Snowing pretty heavily right now.

Well the snowpocaylpse up here turned out to be a bunch of bullshit. The six inches to foot of snow ended up being about two inches of slush at this point. But still they cancelled school all over the area for it. Pussies.

Back when you were a kid and men were men people drove around in the snow with a cigarette hanging in dey mouf. Driving 10 over on sheets of ice killing each other. bundle of stickss these days.

I think he was on a boat! :)

As predicted we got about 9" snow here. It is forecasted to continue till tonight adding another 4". Saw about 5 cars in the ditch on the way to work on the Highway. One of them of course was going 70mph, passing me while texting. Thought about helping them but then thought "play stupid games"

JFC, BWillie. Is there a subject that you aren't a complete pussy on? You don't do anything for yourself, you hate any weather that is too hot or too cold, you don't like leaving your house unless it's to travel to play poker, and any manual labor makes you turtle up like an infant.

I travel to play golf alot and watch sporting events. Why would I do manual labor?

We were in the 2-3" band of predicted snow. Woke up to 6" on the ground this morning and got another inch. Sucks because my snow blower wouldn't start this weekend, but figured I wouldn't need it. Now I have to go shovel 7" of heavy, wet snow.

:cuss:

New Jersey is about to get washed away. Snow on the ground from this past weekend and here comes rain for the next twelve hours, expected to total up to 3". 50+ mph winds for good measure.

It's been real fellas.

Forecast for gameday. JFC... Florida Man is gonna fly in to KC and get a real nice taste of Midwest winter.

Last game I went to that was this cold, the beer lines all froze, and they ran out of can beer way before halftime.

I am with you. For 3 yrs, my Ford 8N "little" Tractor was broke dick. Luckily, the past coupla years, we haven't had that much snow (NE KS). This Fall I decided to do ANYTHING to get it going. It sat on my side driveway for 2 1/2 months because my screwups trying to make it work (I wont' go into it because of the ludicrousness). I finally got it working 12/30.

An aside, anyone that uses a blade on gravel...buy a 1 1/2" pvc pipe and cut a ~ 1/4" wide down the middle and slide it onto the blade. This keeps the sharp part of the blade from spreading your gravel into the grass. It floats, but leaves a tad on snow still on the gravel. It worked great!!

I hope that you didn't have to shovel a whole lot. That snow was heavy. People forget how strenuous shoveling snow is. It is one of the main causations of a myocardial infarction.

BTW, I also spent quite a bit of time maintaining my generator for the first time as well.

There is the boat one, then one where the dog is squating on a hill and the wind sucks the turd out of his butt and slides away on ice.

Both are fantastic.

I am impressed you still have an 8N going. Not many of those around.

Snowing again here expected to get another couple of inches then another 5-6 tomorrow and Friday, on top of the 11 we got Monday and Tuesday :shake:

Yeah that was some heart attack snow. Every year the first big snow I spit and cuss why I didn't buy that snow thrower on clearance last spring. I suspect it will be the same this spring. I just can't pull the trigger.

In NE KS you can find quite a few. I almost bought another as a parts tractor. The story I understand is that near the end of their production, someone bought all the patents for the parts. Thus they didn't fall to the wayside. They are pretty easy to work on...of course. I converted mine from 6 volt to 12 a number of years ago.

I have 10 acres and it comes in handy in a myriad of ways.

When do you buy a snow shovel? In June.

When do you buy a grill? November.

You had it right, just pull the trigger:)

I didn't enjoy shoveling it, but it was heavy and wet enough I was able to build a half-ass cave with my son. He was interested in it for all of a minute before he said it was too cold and he wanted to go in and get hot chocolate.

Can't blame him

The kids have been playing outside non-stop, and taking a break by being pulled around on a sled with me driving the razor.

I made some 10' tall "mountains" of snow with the skid steer. I'm shocked one of the boys hasn't taken a header off of them. LMAO

Swiss Miss cocoa stock has skyrocketed due to our house consumption.

These are good times. Loving it.

Snowpocalypse round 2 is underway, and this one seems to be legit. Damn near blizzard conditions and about 3" on the roads already, and it's just getting started. Supposed to snow like hell well into tomorrow. They're forecasting around a foot or more, then off to the deep freeze when it's over. Yuck.

We are setting records, and not in a good way.

HA! It gets worse north of Billings.


https://scontent-den2-1.xx.fbcdn.net...hw&oe=65A56B26

Jesus.

The best part of switching away from DTV to firestick/wireless internet is never again having to climb a ladder and clean snow off that goddamn dish. Because I'd be doing it several times on a day like this.

I was going to bitch about -25, but that Montana chart of temps got me to shut up.

Well there is a silver lining to all of it. All the new residents from California are in for a reality check. :D

Apparently there have been multiple highways shut down around KC with cars off the road everywhere.

KC Scout shows everything is all good

Holy shit Bwana. I'm pissed at the cold, but that is ridiculous.
