We got nothing from the storm predicted for last night/today. Things were downgraded to 4 inches for our area but we ended up with ZERO. I’m not complaining. Might get a bit dirty Wednesday night, however. Figures as I go back to work on Thursday morning. I’m not concerned about MY ability to get in and out of the yard but it just means that it will be four days before I am able to really clean up the yard so it falls onto my wife who, thankfully does not mind using a large snow scoop to clear out the main portion of the yard. That is the only thing about 12 hour shifts.......not much time to do stuff until days off.

Our system has worked just fine for years, I don't want to Adapt ! LOL Let it happen after I'm dead and gone. It creates problems for us mechanics with 2 sets of tools and the idiots in Detroit using both metric and SAE on the same vehicle. Wasn't it us that started the Industrial Revolution and mass production ? I could be wrong and a Old Fart but Proud of it. LOL

No. That would have been the British, in the early part of the 1700's.
Industrialization of the US happened starting not long afterwards though.

I remember those snow less SoCal days and didn't mind it a bit. If you wanted snow you could go up to Big Bear.

Be thankful you are not in the UK and still dealing with old Whitworth threads and tools as well.

When I was a kid the coldest I remember seeing around here was 30 below 0 F and can't even remember what the wind chill was.

We are getting more dysfunctional weather today. Starting as snow, turning to snow mixed with rain, then just rain with high wind gusts up to 40 mph. Mixed up & crazy.
