    I concur about the military weather. They use their own models and they have variants as well. A friend of mine in the Air Force was a meteorologist and told me that it was all quite complex. (Same thing Sanitation Engineers say...whatever.)

    As a "supposed" SETI Researcher, I "might" have access to everything in the government, including military weather reports. This is a nice time to visit A51 for example, I guess.

    We had marginal fun in the snow today.

    Finally got the snowblower running correctly, however mine is somewhat crappy (it was free) and it gets clogged with th is type of snow. Had to keep using a stick to clean the thrower chute out.
    Anyway, we made a snowman, I worked from home for most of the day, and we did some sledding.

    This shit was really heavy.

    I'm working on a room upstairs, and I threw a bunch of pieces of the old linoleum floor out the upstairs window onto a tarp. Of course, I wasn't aware there was a storm coming, as it was relatively warm, and not precipitating when I went to bed last night. Needless to say, all that shit was covered with snow today, and it was a PITA to get it down under the porch where I was intending to put it. Alas.

    I hear ya. I usually put mine away for winter to avoid the salt. Inadvertently, it just stays away because the garage it's in, is across town.
