Back home, and it's almost, but not quite 80*. So back to normal for this time of year.

The wind was incredibly bad and I spent yesterday on the roofs of my condo complex making repairs to stop the wind from ripping the roof off the building. The main roof flashing was pulled up and off and i havent seen anything like this since the last hurricane that hit this area. Roof hatches were blown off there opening partially across the roof. It was so windy you had to move mainly on your knees or belly.
Today had to repair a few issues as well, but the winds have died down today.

We've been lucky here so far this year. In fact,the last 2 days have been sunny,but cold. I'm waiting for the other shoe to fall. We usually get 8-16 inches of snow,here from now till the end of March.... :o

Noreaster heading your way as I type. March is always a mixed bag but has been warm the last few years.

Got up this morning to 4 inches of fresh white snow....all weather reports said "little to no precipitation" and no chance of snow. In my next life I wanna be a "weatherman". I can mess up every day,make totally incorrect predictions, and never get fired.... :twisted:

Yeah, would be nice to be able to be completely wrong as often as not yet have total job security if you manage to hit 25% of the time...
