Sounding like we are going to have back to back weekends of ridiculous snow. Im gonna be going home, loading up my snowblower and taking it in to get fixed before the weekend because it seems like a mere shovel aint gonna cut it.

 

All summer long i put off getting it fixed lol

 

anywhere from 5-10 inches expected

I'm already done with this winter.

Current forecasted temperatures for Sunday. High: 2, Low: -11. Good thing I sold my Bears/Packers tix while they were still going for face.

Holy crap. That doesn't even factor in the wind chill. Looks like I won't be doing much of anything this weekend except for shoveling.

Yeah, it looks bad already. Different types of snow too, at least the first wave this past weekend was the light and dry kind.

That article you linked is from last weekend. I know it's supposed to snow this Friday/Saturday, are they really calling for 5-10 inches again?

My forecast for Saturday just says ice pellets. That sounds miserable.

sorry grabbed the wrong link.

 

I heard this morning on the radio they are calling for a large amount of snow again on Friday and Saturday, then on Saturday temps are going to plunge again and it will turn to ice

We've had about 13 inches of snow since last weekend - and more expected over the next few days.

 

This Saturday, it's supposed to be an icy mix.

 

Lovely.

I'm suppose to go to the game, no way game gets postponed/moved right?

Not a chance.

 

 

I think lighting storms are the only thing that could cancel a football game.

That's what I thought, thx.

 

Gonna have to layer up.

I am supposed to be flying out to Nashville from Midway on Sunday morning.

 

My question is...Do you guys think I will be flying out to Nashville from Midway on Sunday morning?

Although I think you're not supposed to be flying out to Nashville from Midway on Sunday morning, I think you will be flying out to Nashville from Midway on Sunday morning.

God damn, I am totally confused now.

Yeah you will get out no problem. SWA gives zero s***s.

I am sick of this winter, and it isn't even winter yet.

I'm taking this girl I'm seeing to the game Sunday. She's never been to a Bears game (just moved her from Ohio in June), and my family has season tickets. Reallyyyyyy leaning towards trying to get rid of them. Yikes.

Yeah, everyone is trying to unload

Possibly the coldest game ever played at Soldier Field. My couch seems perfect on Sunday.

Quick dog walk this morning. Even he was having none of this. That type of cold that hurts his paws.

Problem is she still thinks itd be fun to go. I was at that previous coldest game against the packers in 08. Woof. It's a fun game of trying to drink your beer before it freezes.

Yeah that game sucks. I've been there for games that were at least above 10 degrees and it was still torture. my ass was so frozen that I didnt even know my pants were falling down.

Ha, I was there too! It was awful.

I love drinking outside in cold weather...hell I just love drinking outside.

 

The freezing of the beer is just a bonus.

 

Going to watch the Bears though is not worth the ancillary trouble.

 

Going ice fishing in a few weeks. Sleeping on the ice. Should be unique and fun.
