Super User fourbizz Posted December 8, 2009 Super User Posted December 8, 2009 Power was out for 16 hours. Trees down across the roads everywhere, and people who didnt know how to drive in snow were everywhere. This is only the 3rd time it has snowed at my house in the almost 7 years I have been here. Boss called me at 8 and asked if I could run some paper work from a customer up to him. LOL. What an adventure that was. 35miles of unplowed roads with big oaks down all over the place. Not to mention my new beater truck doesnt have a heater, or windshield wipers that are worth a d**n. Caught up on my sleeping and reading though. It was like being back home in Colorado for a day.

Super User Dan: Posted December 8, 2009 Super User Posted December 8, 2009 holy crap! my brother in Danville said they got some, but it wasn't nearly that much. Do houses in CA even have heaters? Fireplaces? Quote
Super User fourbizz Posted December 8, 2009 Author Super User Posted December 8, 2009 Yeah. where I am at, it regularly gets into the 40's and we usually have 10-20 nights a year that we get a frost. So we had the fireplace kicking all day. The annoying thing is, I have spoken for a friends generator that he is selling, just hadnt picked it up yet. Called today and he was out of town >. Quote
Super User K_Mac Posted December 8, 2009 Super User Posted December 8, 2009 What a mess. Even here in the Midwest where people see that kind of weather once in a while, those conditions would create havoc. Sure is pertty though. Quote
fathom Posted December 8, 2009 Posted December 8, 2009 if we saw snow like that down here, there'd be riots in the streets. after it cleared. Quote
Super User Jimzee Posted December 8, 2009 Super User Posted December 8, 2009 Awesome pic Jay. We've had some of that white stuff for a couple days here, not nearly that much though. Quote
Super User 5bass Posted December 8, 2009 Super User Posted December 8, 2009 Dang! Thats a lot of snow! Send some of it my way. We got about 3/4 of an inch Saturday morning. It melted before the sun went down. Whats up Blaine? Long time no see. Quote
I Love BassResource Posted December 8, 2009 Posted December 8, 2009 Lol mafia wars is broke, so Blaine is forced back to BR. Lol, Whats up JimZee Quote
Super User 5bass Posted December 8, 2009 Super User Posted December 8, 2009 Lol mafia wars is broke LOL!! ;D Quote
Super User fourbizz Posted December 8, 2009 Author Super User Posted December 8, 2009 No joke! WHere you been Blaine? Quote
BassResource.com Administrator Glenn Posted December 8, 2009 BassResource.com Administrator Posted December 8, 2009 We had temps in the low teens overnight last night, and due for an even colder night tonight. Although we don't have any snow, the daytime temps don't get much above freezing, if at all. Quote
Super User Jimzee Posted December 8, 2009 Super User Posted December 8, 2009 I'm on here quite a bit guys, just been in the background keeping my mouth shut for once. It's that time of year, getting the itch to go fishing. If I can't do it, I want to talk about it. ;D Quote
RobbyZ5001 Posted December 8, 2009 Posted December 8, 2009 I had 6 inches of snow at my house in Allentown, PA this past weekend. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted December 8, 2009 Super User Posted December 8, 2009 Nice pic! I reminds me of Colorado, too! 8-) Quote
Super User J Francho Posted December 8, 2009 Super User Posted December 8, 2009 We call that a "dusting" of snow up here. Quote
D4u2s0t Posted December 8, 2009 Posted December 8, 2009 I had between 7-9 inches saturday, and we're expecting more tonight. It's different here though, I have a cord of wood in my garage, and good snow tires lol. So just another day Quote
Branuss04 Posted December 9, 2009 Posted December 9, 2009 Power was out for 16 hours. Trees down across the roads everywhere, and people who didnt know how to drive in snow were everywhere. This is only the 3rd time it has snowed at my house in the almost 7 years I have been here. Boss called me at 8 and asked if I could run some paper work from a customer up to him. LOL.

Caught up on my sleeping and reading though. It was like being back home in Colorado for a day. I'm sure glad I got rid of that POS before winter came around. Sucks to be you lol. The no heater thing sucked during those chilled summer nights, couldn't imagine now. And there is NO difference between HIGH and LOW on the windshiled wipers. I am convinced that the two positions are to comfort the driver lol. My parents live a little higher than Jay, and the got 13 inches. In the 17 years they have lived there the most they have gotten is 5inches. Pretty amazing if you ask me. Even at 200 feet in elevation, I got snow in Roseville, CA. The picture is the top of my car. Sure would love to have a day off in the snow! Quote
Super User Tin Posted December 9, 2009 Super User Posted December 9, 2009 With friends like you it's no wonder why he is so miserable. Quote
Branuss04 Posted December 9, 2009 Posted December 9, 2009 He sold me his old boat... so it was only fair. I don't feel at all bad for him. Crap for Crap!!! ;D Quote
Pond Hopper Posted December 9, 2009 Posted December 9, 2009 We had 6-8 inches in the last day and had up to 50 mph gusts, which resulted in a 3 foot drift in my driveway, which we just removed with an oversized endloader. I made it through the drift in Yoda though prior to getting it plowed out! Gonna be a long winter. Quote
b.Lee Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Hey Four Biz I just came down from Oregon, where is all that Snow? Quote
Super User fourbizz Posted December 10, 2009 Author Super User Posted December 10, 2009 This was just above Auburn. Still have 6 inches on the ground. Quote
b.Lee Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Wow I didn't see any snow on my way back down from Oregon on 5. Must be crazy in the mountains now. Quote
