Would a leaf blower work? Asking for a friend who DOESN'T live in Cali and might actually have to deal with something like that

i've used a leafblower before on very fluffy snow

Ice cold and snow again !

How do people live in this shyt their entire lives? Cold, dark, grey, depressing as hell. 3 yrs of it and I'm fed up.

10 yrs of Seattle's stupid ass drizzling rain for 9 months of the year wasn't much better.

Southern California....one day....

Isn't it nice? I was feeling much the same last few days as it was snowing around here.

Conditions actually came together nicely two days ago to make the roads sheer ice as we had enough snow melting and then it turned to negative 5 C and froze, contributed to a nice little 39 car pileup on a highway near me. Which made getting home take 3 times the regular amount of time.

lsturbointeg · 04-11-2018, 04:12 AM

so this morning i was expecting to do the first mowing of the season and walked out to this

DieselOG · 04-11-2018, 08:25 AM

Last year at this time we were drinking beer on the boat, and we’re looking at a foot of snow this weekend

Never_Enough · 04-11-2018, 09:14 AM

At least we'll get a couple nice days this weekend here before going back to below normal temps. WTH is going on?

Nice house / area!

MightyMouseTech · 04-11-2018, 10:09 AM

GAH! Calling for up to 25 cm of snow this weekend. This is usually the weekend my car comes out of storage.

UncleWede · 04-11-2018, 10:23 AM

We set record HIGHS on Monday, but it is dropping like 10 degrees over the next couple days. Not sure if I can survive this. It was mid-50s when I got up this morning so couldn't ride motorcycle to work.

Mid 50's. Boo hoo. Unless you're old enough that your ballsack hangs so low you look like a grandfather clock naked, man up and feel sorry for me and everyone else that deals with much colder temps!!!

Except for Lups - you don't have to feel sorry for her. She chose to move back.
