Columbus Snow Plowing Discussion

[Analogue Kid]

These storms hitting during rush hour are the worst. It’s impossible for crews to clear the road during the event with tons of traffic on the road.

I hate the term “snow warriors”

Unrelated; co-worker’s commute from Reynoldsburg to downtown took 3 hours this morning.

Via Email: 2/18 – 1/29pm

The Snow Warriors are finishing Priority I routes and moving into Priority II and III routes this afternoon. Check out WarriorWatch to see which streets have been treated.

REMINDER:
· Drive with extra care and leave additional distance between you and the vehicle in front of you

· Maintain a distance of no less than 100 feet behind a snow plow truck

· Avoid passing snow plow trucks because the drivers cannot always see a smaller car about to pass

· Be a good neighbor! Please shovel your sidewalk.

Agreed, it’s a stupid term. I’d prefer Snow Ninjas. Anyway, no issues getting into work today, primarily because my ‘commute’ is all of two miles. I look forward to an invigorating hike in zero degree temps in Whetstone tonight. You sun worshipers don’t know what you’re missing.

One must have a mind of winter
To regard the frost and the boughs
Of the pine-trees crusted with snow;

And have been cold a long time
To behold the junipers shagged with ice,
The spruces rough in the distant glitter

Of the January sun; and not to think
Of any misery in the sound of the wind,
In the sound of a few leaves,

Which is the sound of the land
Full of the same wind
That is blowing in the same bare place

For the listener, who listens in the snow,
And, nothing himself, beholds
Nothing that is not there and the nothing that is.
