Drasnighta 26,833 Posted December 9, 2017 It’s amazing to see the difference between a city that is used to it (and has to constantly be prepared) versus a city that can’t be expected to have specialist equipment on standby because it might not be used for a decade... i mean, that looks like a good 3 inches... ~8cm. at the moment, Hothgary is still heat waving, but when it does snow, we’ll expect 15-20cm overnight, shovel our walks, and drive to work as usual, because all the major roads will have been ploughed twice during the snowfall, an they would have started on secondary connecting roads by 6am... because they have to be ready for that and sink a budget into it, I guess ? You shouldn’t be expected to risk your life for work, let alone fun... so kudos for not risking it if you are not personally prepared... I just find the difference starkly interesting. 1 ThatSlyBandit reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HolyTyrant 2 Posted December 9, 2017 Yeah. We have more equipment than we used to because of a freak storm a few years back but that really only gets the major roads and interstates. A lot of the more outlying areas don't see jack. And I have a rear wheel drive car with tires that are approaching replacement time so I'm not sure I'd trust their grip out in this.

Astrodar 594 Posted December 9, 2017 Best of luck everyone. Sadly I won’t be making it due to the road conditions. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HolyTyrant 2 Posted December 9, 2017 Yeah, not enough has melted in my neighborhood. I'm not going to make it. Good luck and have fun those of you that can still make it! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Astrodar 594 Posted December 11, 2017 @jamie nasmyth If we pre-registered, but weren't able to make it, what are the odds of getting one of the Alt-art Gozanti cards? 2 moodswing5537 and CaribbeanNinja reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
