Shoot the Breeze With the Cooler Crew - Ableminds Edition

I am done with work as of 2:30 today. The main roads though are still mostly wet. Travel isn't too bad in town. I understand there have been some issues on the freeway system though.

I was just playing with this rain/snow converter.

If for everyone 1 inch of rain - you guys get 10 inches of snow (wet equivilant) then last year (only year I could pull data for me for) you guys would have gotten 38 feet of snow when I had that flood over new years.

wow - thats a lot of snow

I went to work only to turn around and come back home 2 hours later, apparently Isanti county won't plow untill the snow stops :eyeroll: a usual 1/2 hour drive took me an hour.

I only remember two times during the years I went to school, that we had a "snow day"....

High schools and middle schools closing one hour early; after-school activities cancelled

District 196 high schools and middle schools will be closing one hour early today (March 1) due to weather and driving conditions. District 196 elementary schools will dismiss students at the regular time.

An early closing at the high schools and middle schools will provide additional time to complete these school bus routes before these same buses are needed to start the elementary school routes. Elementary schools are not being released early due to concern that some students would not have an adult or older sibling at home.


Figures... Our kids never get a snow day.... (which means they can't rid the excess energy before I get home :frown:

I hit some whiteout stuff up in Blaine for a period of time. Saw quite a few cars in the ditches. Most looked like they got caught in the snow and drove off the road rather then spin out.

When they called me this mornign to tell me that Amy didn't have class this afternoon I asked if they would be canceling class tomorrow as well just as a precaution they said nobody would know until tomorrow mornign....annoying...you know we are getting lots of snow plan ahead and cancel classes the last thing I want is my kids or anyones kids standing at a bus stop and getting hit by a car that spins out.

The kids had a tunnel but daddy buried it tonight when he plowed the cul-de-sac might go out and see about getting the tunnel open again :grin: My kids are really funny in the winter sometimes I think they go outside just so that they can come inside and have hot chocolate because immediately when we come in thats the first question can we have hot chocolate now :wink:

on the 15th me, Carolyn, and a small group of our peeps will be heading to Acme comedy club in MPLS, and then bar-hopping in DT, to celebrate my b-day (the 16th)....

then the evening of the 16th, we will have a small "hotel party", at a place yet to be decided upon.... most likely it'll be in the fridley/columbia heights area...

just making a post, incase anybody doesnt have anything going on, and wants to do something on either of those nights...

hit me up with an e-gram and I'll hook you up with more info as it becomes available...
