I like the way out town does the plowing. Everything gets plowed to middle of the street, no driveway to clear out.

So they won't hire Stan's snowplow buddy from Bahston I guess.
LOL. Must be a small town Peter? My Mother, Her Parents , and Grand Parents grew up in a small town in northern Wisconsin and ah bit north west of Green Bay named Shawano. They did what I'm about to tell yeah Into the late '60s for sure. I know they did it like your town thru the complete Down town area 'cuz I witnessed it in February of '67 when I drove our '66 Riviera over the Big Mac Bridge and buried it in Grand Dads driveway 'bout midnight. That 4500lb Riv waz tobogganing over the drifts all the way crossed US2, lol Next day after we cleared the ice out of the fan and radiator. I drove down town and they'd already swept the sidewalks and curb lanes with N9s with roller brooms on their noses into the middle street and had a 2 1/2 ton with 'bout an 8'X8' snow blower hung on its nose and a pretty long line of 7 yard dumps backed up to have the Snow Blower load 'um up. I followed one of 'um out to the north side of town where the Wolf River crossed under the road and Shawano saw fit to have paved a pretty big turn around area where they had an elevated ramp constructed. They'd back up and dump their loadz into the Wolf River and it in short order that blizzard would be in Lake Superior 'cuz the wolf waz fast mover.(never saw It frozen) lol Necessity iz the Mother of invention rite Peter? Stay warm Pal. A memory I still smile about after 40+ yearz, Jer

It would be in those funny numbers... those make my brain hurt. The only ones that make sense to me is when it's -40, that's when they are both the same

Here you go, but it's in those funny numbers for us, so not to confuse you.

It's not bad for mid-January.
that's only because you sent your cold air this way
