24" snow set for the South (Virginia) Fri and Sat

[aplumma]

Well the storm is almost here and the forcast is set for 18" to 24" before it is all over with. It seems it would be rain except for Canadas generous donation of the cold air.... So in the same spirit that you gave the cold air to us. We ( The Southern Contingency) Have officially decided to not send any Warm air up North till you stop your unwanted cold air attack...

 

Feel free to Email this note to all of your friends since we are working on a limited budget here at the Contingency

 

Thank you for your attention to this note.

Thats incredible.. its funny... I have maybe 6" of snow on the ground here.... I dont think its climate warming, i think its climate shifting... wanna borrow my snowblower?? (oh ya... and your welcome!!)

[aplumma]

Well the good news is we have a decent sized tractor with a bucket and blade so I will survive fine. The bad news is Daplumma and Bec's with Mom and Pops are all sitting on the beach in Costa Rica laughing at me I am sure. I'm off to get some extra fuel for the tractor before it starts that nasty white stuff falling from the sky.

No snow here in Hamilton, Hamilton Ontario that is.

 

18 to 24"s would be more than we've had all winter.

Truth is I haven't had to get the shovel out yet this winter.

[bigfish1965]

Ontario is the new Viginia. Except with less possums. No snow here to speak of and none in the forecast.

Make sure to build a southern snowman for us to see. (The bigger ball goes on the bottom)

[John]

Hey Art, maybe you could sell it to BC in time for the Olympics. You would just need a bigger blower...

[bigugli]

Seeing as we didn't have any kind of summer in Ontario, this year, we decided to export some of our winter "surplus"

[Nanook]

Dont forget to change your moccasins[?] for snow boots.

If ya need any more, just let us know !!

[kickingfrog]

I don't care who ya are, that's funny right there!

[Marc Thorpe]

So I guess by next week you guys will be selling Popsicles

 

when it thaws we can sell you lawn fertilizer

[Rich Clemens]

They're calling for about a foot where I live. The farther south, the more of a dumping.

That's awfully nice of you Art to do all the plowing while Joe and the family are gone.

Im sure they laugh at ya when they are at home too... don't feel bad.

So Art, your own parents and brother didn't invite you to go on holidays with them eh? Go easy on the goats, Joe'll be steamed if he returns to broken goats and chickens. Are you sure he's bringing you to Lakair this year?

[vance]

Yea poor old left out me... Actually this is how we vacation every year. 2/3 of the farm go on vacation and then next month Mom and Pops and my wife and I go next month it makes it easier to take care of the animals. Since it is my truck and my boat that is going it is more like I am taking JOE to Lak Air but since yall are lookin forward to us visitin I guess he gets to come along.

We ended up with about 2 feet of that white stuff. Thank goodness for kind neighbors with snow blowers or I'd still be out there. Went ahead and removed the snow from our 2-car garage, as I'm assuming there was a tremendous amount of weight up there. Now - If I can even move tomorrow, it will be a wonder. My mother also has very accommodating neighbors, or I'd be up there trying to get her dug out. OK - Enough of winter already. South of us, had even more.

 

Maybe Art will pop in and tell us how much he got down there.

[TJQ]

Good luck to our southern contingent!!

[aplumma]

Well I have been tractoring for 9 hours today and still havent reached the road. The blade does nothing so it is scoop a bucket and then turn to the side and dump....repeat a gazillion times. The monotony breaker is get the tractor unstuck. This is a big tractor too.

 

If I find out Canada "attacked" us on purpose I'm comin up there in June and drowned all of your muskies at Lak Air
