Going to put the snowplow on my F350 today. **** the snow. I wish the other people with 4x4s would figure out that it doesn't work on ice. Dumb fucks.

I always thought spinning on 4 wheels was always more fun than 2 wheels....and you are right. You know how many idiots think they can drive 60 on ice because they are in 4 wheel drive?

And BTW.......what you are getting tonight is why I left Illinois. Bit chilly here. 70 and sun.

I'm heading into Chicago tomorrow night to see Kyle Kinane.
Gonna be interesting on I-88 if we plan on driving. If not-- Metra all the way.

The 10:30 show? See ya there.

Don't think driving tomorrow night is going to be too bad, because the snow is supposed to be done in the afternoon. The highways usually get cleared pretty well. Side roads not so much, though.

Very happy I put the plow on. Snowing pretty hard here. Now they're saying 3 to 5 inches.

Such a non-event. Not even an inch in the Plainfield/Joliet/Bolingbrook area

Northern suburbs got hammered.

So it's not a "non-event". Very unusual to get this much snow in late November.

We have a foot, looks like a few more inches before ending towards late afternoon.

84 degrees in LA today. I got fucked because I thought it was colder than it actually is (it dipped down to about 68 degrees last night), so I put on some socks and tennis shoes, but when I walked outside I realized I should be wearing flip flops, so I had to go back inside and change.

Why do you post IGT's for every weather event?

Next up, IGT Partly Cloudy Day and 50 degrees.

Why do you follow Grim around like a lost puppy?

Here in the Northern burbs I have all my wet clothing dry from sno-blowing the first time and will be going out again for the 2nd session of sno-blowing soon.

Totally lame that basically all the Illinois-Indiana region teams had away games today, instead of any chance of home snow games.

I grew up in Crystal Lake do, and my pops still lives there in the same home. I'll think about you shovelling snow as I mow the lawn tonight.
