Sending yet another winter storm you guys way for the weekend....
See that big blob of ice on the radar? I'm right in the middle of it! lol

Today/tonight could get tricky...depending on whether the power lines survive. If we get through it with electricity, tomorrow is supposed to be in the 40's. I don't see anything to be concerned about outside right now...but there is some ice on the trees.

I bet all that ice on those tree branches is making for a nice Kodak moment!

And, of course, if you lose electricity, there is the Cargomax, equipped to handle such a situation!

I thought for sure I'd be out of here by now, especially where I am at, the area and all...being a traditionally strong area.Thought about going into Rocketman mode, but even that is out of the question, as slow as it has been lately....lol..

The ice is almost past here now. So far, so good (knocking on wood). It looks like MO, IL, IN may get the worst of it...depending on their temps. I saw once forecast calling for an inch of sleet/ice in the STL area. THAT could be disastrous if it does happen.

The lights flickered here a few times, but so far, holding out.

Taking cover in STL. Not too heavy, but the ice component it making things a real mess.

Stay safe and if you have a problem make sure to communicate to dispatch.

Yesterday afternoons load was a dud. It was too long. So now that the worst of the weather appears to be clear, I am hoping some of that Tenntrucker luck comes my way! With a nice long load today!

Measure twice, load once.

I knew it wasn't going to fit the moment I saw it. I measured, and came up with 12 inches too long for my van. It wasn't a height issue. That's all I'm going to say about that.

All showered and ready to go...snow stopped. So far, no rain to speak of....yet....lol...
