So apparently they're giving out tickets in Topeka for people driving that are not emergency related.

How the eff am I supposed to get home?

LMAO

With a ticket

Coffee, Biscuits and Gravy, watching it snow with the kitties. I'd just like to say, Loren Halifax on WDAF is mega hot. I'd like to touch her inappropriately. Did I say that out loud?

I might ahve go break the sobriety challenge and score some beer.

yeah, I'll be 'that guy' walking in the snow with some beer in his hands

tell the cops that your wife called and there is an axe murderer in house as we speak. get a lift home with him.
....suspect 'just' got away. but thanks officer.

No.

I wish my teleporter wasn't in the shop.

The beer looter dude we know who you are alright.

That is why you stock up even if doesn't do anything.

Right out front.

I-70 shut down in Kansas west of Salina

OK OK! I made a drink! :)

Man, Charly Arnolt on FOX4 is so hot. She should have a thread in the pictures forum.

35 at the Bond bridge is closed

Loren makes me feel all tingly. She's a total Cougar....

guys are outside actually digging their way down the street.


shoveling the street to lower the snow and then using cardboard to pound it down


driving 10 feet and then repeating the process ROFL

LMAO holy shit

That's more than 10 feet at a time.

This just makes my day ROFL.

they must be thirsty.

There's this dipshit neighbor I have that falls asleep in his car with the music blaring late at night on a regular basis. One time this moron had his kitchen sink clogged up so he decided turning on the hot water full blast would be a good way to unclog it. Then he went and fell asleep on his couch, and flooded the 2 apartments below him.

Well this dumb**** just dug out his car to try and leave! He's been spinning his wheels for the last 15 min, and he can't even get back into his spot that he just vacated! LMAO

they must be thirsty.

Wife was going to be home tonight at around 10-11 pm.

Now told there's no flight out to kc for 24 hours.

At best.

Rausch is very tired of sammiches, ramen noodles, and the lack of Juli Ashton vids on teh innerwebs...

I've watched 2 dipshits get stuck trying to get out over on this side.

No schnitzengrubbens?

well they have called/recruited a 3rd guy


they have also made it another 5 or 6 feet


total suckage

So far 9.5 inches here on Topeka....7 of that came down in a 2 hour period.

Snow has arrived in Omaha. I'm probably going to get stuck at work but luckily I just ran out and got extra food and some alcoholic beverages. Should be a fun afternoon.

Dude - if you can drink at work, that ain't work!

Looks like omaha is going blasted as well

Nein.

:(

If I'm getting paid...it's work. And anything past 4:30 is overtime.

So who is the person that posts here that also works at NOAA? Winter Storm "Q" is just entirely fantastic, my friend. Next beer is for you.

God bless four wheel drive trucks with big ass tires and motors.

She's pretty good too. I've heard that she's actually a lot younger than she looks, but I can't verify that. Still, no contest for Charly.

Yep, another neighbor stuck now.. I had lived here for a little over 3 years, and never received a noise complaint. Within 1 month of this grumpy old bitch moving in, she'd complained on me twice.. If either of these people were kind, or considerate, I'd throw on some clothes and help dig out a path to get them in a parking spot, but they're not, so I'll watch and laugh.

All we are getting is sleet, over 4 inches so far. The short legged dog is having issues trying to take a whiz. I don't expect to see a snow plow until tomorrow or Saturday. Oh well, I got no where to go anyway.

Just shoveled my driveway in OP. I would say we are around a foot. It was more than I was expecting.

Yeah I watched some dipshit spin his wheels for about 10 minutes, I went out and asked him if I could give him a push. He looked at me like I kicked his dog and said "Nah we're good, makin progress." His 2 wheel Dodge pickup is still stuck out on the middle of the lot.

stopped snowing now, they say it will start up again later


hard to tell how much we got, some of the drifts look 2 feet high


i'd say 8-12 inches

We got a couple inches of snow but most of it came down as sleet, KOAM says 1-3” but it’s sitting on the roads one hell of a lot thicker than that. Misting now, turning it into slushy mess.

:thumb: Almost stuck the truck at lunch so I parked it and fired up the Jeep. No worries about it getting stuck but damn is it a cantankerous old bitch to drive in this stuff.

I saw a couple of other neighbors go out to try and help this lady, and dig her out with brooms. Sure enough about 15 min later, I hear a knock on my door. This lady is trying to recriuit me?! **** that, I didn't even get up and go to the door. This isn't a matter of life and death, so I'm not going to go out and get cold and wet. She's one of the only dipshits with her car out in the middle of this shit to begin with, so she can wait for the snow to melt as far as I'm concerned.

Wow....the interstates are all pretty gnarly. Better stay off the roads!

It's coming down pretty good now, but the system seems to be falling apart as it heads north, we may luck out with this first wave.

Snow cant get here quick enough. Dying to try my first 2 stage. 1988 Jacobson 26 Imperial
Just sprayed it down with Pam. Now the wait.

I'll just have to spray my satellite dish with Pam before it hits up here. :D

You might be waiting a while.

Looks like we got around 6 inches of snow now.. snowing has stopped and is now big fat sleet balls but at a slowed pace

Dumb bitch.

http://www.pigironparts.com/jacobsen...now_blower.jpg

& I got it free.

I have a inch outside
I can fix that other snowblower if you want it? I need to weld a couple things. Which is something Chinese people do not know how to do right.

Getting ready to get in my Subaru and take a few co-workers to work. Should be interesting.

An inch isn't even worth starting that monstrosity up for. I'm not too worried about a snowblower, I could go buy one right now if I wanted to but I don't see why I should when I have a teenager and a snow shovel.

Just dug out the driveway.

Using a snowblower is an artform

Just got home.

Got stuck twice in my Mazda. LMAO

My place sits on a hill, which the entry wasn't cleaned off by the complex.

Got stuck originally...some guy offered to help me tow out for $20. GTFO.

Had a sheriff and KSU fan nice enough to help me out.

You KSU fans aren't too bad after all.

My neighbor is an asshole. What is this world coming to when you can't strategically start shoveling as someone's finishing with their snowblower and set a beer down for them and can't expect them to come blow your driveway?

9.5 inches...now getting freezing drizzle.

There is atleast three inches here in central illinois and it didnt even start until one o'clock.

I'd say we got at least a foot and still snowing. Not going anywhere can't get out of driveway.

What a dick. Back when I had my snowblower I did my neighbor's walks and driveway every single time I was out without them even asking. It took me about 10 minutes.

We've probably got about 9" here in Independence, supposed to get about 3 or 4" more tonight. Dug out best I could, but nobody's going anywhere until the side streets get plowed. Here you can see how deep it was in the street. This is about mid calf high.

It's bad all over the State. Pictures from Columbia: US 63 in Columbia, and Providence Road just south of Farout Field. Total frickin' mess:

Do people there tend to have snow tires? We get a couple of storms a winter like that but since we are used to it, people tend to have good tires and the state is good on keeping on top of the plowing and de-icing so you don't see snarled traffic like that. However, over on the coast, they aren't used to it or prepared so snow and/or ice really makes a mess.

When you have 9 or 10 inches of snow, nobody is going anywhere unless they're in a big ass 4-wheel drive. Regular cars and tractor trailers are toast with that much snow. The whole state of Missouri is a mess today. Snow north of I-70, Ice south.

I had to go out for a bit and hit a snow bank..not quite hard enough to get through it. A Marine pulled over and spent an hour helping dig me out. He wouldn't accept a dime from me. If you are on here(doubtful) I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart bro.

I love when all these morons think they are perfect drivers in 12" of snow and they somehow will be the only one on the road. Most of those assholes are getting what they deserve.

The doctors and nurses and emergency responders suffer when these jerks all try to prove they can drive and be tough guys.

Free is awesome. Pneumatic tires in the winter can be a bitch when the bead breaks.

Eh, snow sucks... and shit.

I did get to leave work early though, which is nice.

LMAO

my free snowblower didn't ****ing start; even after I had the engine tuned up at a small enging shopt this fall. MF.


shoveling snow sucked. heavy ass snow. Probably was 8" or so; maybe more.

JFC do we even have an inch yet in Omaha?

Yup I knowz...I knew it would be bad but this is the worst in a long long time.

too me maybe 2 hours to do it. by the time I was done, I was sweatin' like a MF. couldn't even get my coat or gloves off. soaking wet from sweat.

...which was awesome, of course.

Awesome. Wife had to go in this morning for a Partners Meeting, and now she's stuck at work - which is 40 miles away. The only route she has home (I-44) is closed because people can't get up this hill:

Looking east towards the bottom of that hill:

Looking west from the same spot:

Even further west, looking eastbound:

http://pub2.camera.trafficland.com/i...44245680394969

Have you looked outside? We have a whopping 2-3 at least. :D

Roads weren't too terribly bad for me, (had it in 4 low), but people drive like idiots, (almost got rear ended by some douche in a truck). Dumbasses.

Watching the 4 pm wibw news..they say we have 10 inches now in topeka...with about 2-3 more coming.
