Hi Mike,
ReplyDeleteLooks like another storm missed us. Funny how forecast was calling for 2-4 cm last night and surprise nothing again to wake up to. How can they consistently be wrong? Looking at the interactive radar last night I could have predicted no snow over night and would have been right.
is this abandoned?
