I think if I lived there, I'd build a weight bearing carport that extended the whole way to the road. Screw how it would look. It would save an immense amount of time and aggravation every winter.South Dakota
They just closed down all county and city govt in MKE for tomorrow.
Wife just emailed and told me the shit is picking up. Winds roaring, temps dropping.... gonna be sweet!
We're getting hit with more ice now and will be getting even more tonight, with winds picking up. They closed our office today and I don't see them not closing tomorrow as well unless something drastic changes.

we got a company message at like 4 o'clock today from HR/health & safety saying basically this
"We know Armageddon is coming tomorrow but we still expect you to be at work, all orifices will be open"

My last company was like that. Not only that, they would also include "We expect you to be at work on time, so please leave for work earlier." This company claimed to be all for health and safety, but they'd magically ignore snow emergencies declared in the area.
Screw that. My current company's policy is that you can judge for yourself and if you elect to stay home, you can take a vacation day or just make the time up with no penalty.
