I want a refund RT @Markysparkly: 2:09AM Snowupdate, nothing in sight as of yet. Temp says 46ºf.

"Only" 1.5" in the rain gauge this morning #mspwx #55414
15.9.16 16:06 
Just as I was thinking "man, I am timing my leaving work perfectly with the oncoming torrential downpour" I started hearing rain on the roof
15.9.16 16:06 
RT @dream_salad: Oh no. This rain is poorly timed.

SHUT UP, FACEBOOK

After waiting, what, all day for it to finally rain, it finally rained between Grumpy's and the house - and then the weather radio kicked on to let me know storm's a'comin'. I dunno, if I'd actually been asleep at this time, I might have been pissed off at the relatively weak warning just announced. We'll see if I feel differently in a coupla hours, I s'pose. How ya likin' this accent I'm typing in, folks

A little scared to leave the conditioned air of my office
12.7.16 04:08 
It's bad enough trying to sleep in this sweatbox but tonight I ALSO got to unwittingly host another episode of "Find the Dying Smoke Alarm and Replace Its Battery Without Breaking Your Tired Neck So The Beep, The Beep, The Beeping Will Stop," which I WON, but...I don't really FEEL like a winner. I just feel...kinda damp.
11.7.16 23:41 
You've finished strong tonight, bot. Good bot. RT @crz_ebooks: Do we blame the weather?
11.7.16 22:02 
This ain't right #mspwx https://pic.twitter.com/eAfJZTTnm6

Hoooooly shit you guys. Top 5 "white knuckle" drive home for sure. Soooo dark. Whiteout condition, but with rain. Standing water EVERYWHERE. No end of PTS flashbacks to the LAST time I submerged a car and totalled it. Branches down, entire trees down, light poles actually swaying from gusts, on Malcolm I saw a power line make a downed branch look like a road flare had been set. I really should have left work about 30 minutes earlier, but thankfully the car still runs and so do I. Power should be out any minute now (the flashing clocks indicate we at least blinked out once already). Hopefully all this is done in an hour or two and I can run all the errands I was planning on doing right now. But for now....snacks
5.7.16 17:53 
I...didn't get out in time #mspwx
11.6.16 03:52 
Still too hot to bike...or do anything, really
25.4.16 10:06 
I'm wearing pants today.
I am NOT happy about this development

Holee cats it's cold outside tonight

Hey wait. It SNOWED?!
23.3.16 09:40 
Snowflakes in Roseville
18.3.16 19:00 
IT'S SNOWING
7.3.16 17:26 
I can tell it's 60 outside because it's 80 in my office
19.2.16 09:42 
I'm that guy wearing shorts today because the thermometer said 41º
#mspwx
18.2.16 18:03 
Welp, better lay out some shorts to wear tomorrow
13.2.16 04:46 
Look I WANTED to leave the house, but it's allegedly -7 out there and I have way more bourbon than I need here (also it's almost 5am)
3.2.16 00:22 
RT @NWSTwinCities: The MSP Int'l airport reported a storm total of 8.8" as of midnight. #mnwx
31.1.16 15:19 
Shorts weather! Man, I wish I'd worn shorts. But I had to open the moon roof, at least. (43°)
18.1.16 14:01 
RT @NWSTwinCities: The temperature has risen to 0 degrees F at MSP, ending approximately 46 consecutive hours of sub-zero temperatures since 4 PM Saturday.
17.1.16 03:17 
It's now so cold out that I either have to use the upstairs toilet or test flush before using the downstairs toilet. That's a little extra information just for you.
10.1.16 02:03 
Yaknow...you forget how 7 below feels until you have to walk a block in it to get back to the car. Hashtag weather.
9.1.16 19:15 
Current official temperature at The KZiM Tower: 0.1ºF
soooo close.
29.12.15 03:49 
Stop me if you've heard this one before, but it didn't snow NEARLY as much as it would have if I had left the work laptop at work...
26.12.15 02:30 
Whooooooa snow. Just enough to cover all the ice in the Triple Rock parking lot and make sure I fell on my ass not once but twice while trying to uncover the car. Fortunately, the part I fell on doesn't hurt much, but I definitely lost all desire to drive anywhere but home.
13.12.15 08:00 
Turns out I'm way wetter than expected. #nocontext
12.12.15 17:12 
In order to minimize Monday's snowfall, I'm now going to drive back to work to bring home my laptop. YOU'RE WELCOME (in advance)
5.12.15 15:17 
It's DECEMBER and I'm comfortable sitting out on the front steps. I may now officially be El Niño's biggest fan.
5.12.15 11:04 
It's 43°?! I may have to find some yard work to do!
1.12.15 11:09 
WAY less snow than promised. I fall for that trick every time!

Commute update for Matthew Hansen (and YOU!) 280 was fantastic, although this is probably the only time you'll catch me under the speed limit on it. One car didn't negotiate their exit very well as, instead of turning, they apparently slid halfway down the berm. 35W wasn't a sheet of ice - at least the mile I was on wasn't. I only (anti-)locked the brakes once and that was during early goings on Franklin Ave. Now, having said all that...I'm STILL planning on doing half of today and probably all of tomorrow working from home if possible.
30.11.15 10:25 
You know...not nearly as bad as I worried. I think the plows made it out ahead of me.
(Still planning on leaving early to work from home)
30.11.15 09:57 
OK, time for my 7 mile drive to Roseville. How long will a usually 10-15 minute drive take me today? Stay tuned to this social network!
30.11.15 09:38 
Gas meter inspector finally arrived, telling me it took him 90 minutes to get here from Blaine. I am NOT looking forward to my drive to Roseville and back. On the plus side, I made a good cup of tea this morning.

(Obligatory "it's snowing earlier than I was ready for even though it's practically December" status follows) Whyyyyyy didn't I go into the office and get my laptop LAST night? At least any concerns I had about suddenly losing my cardio have been alleviated by the 20 minutes of shoveling I hadn't planned on doing just now. (Also, why did I tell CenterPoint last week that this morning between 8 and 10 would be a good time for the gas meter inspection?)
30.11.15 08:07 
Heeeeey snow. Now I wish I'd gone by the office yesterday to pick up the laptop so I wouldn't have to work there today
27.11.15 21:55 
For the record, 22° wasn't cold enough for me to regret walking here...but I sure hope it isn't much colder when it comes time to walk back
13.11.15 10:54 
My denial is over; I have given in. No shorts today.
12.11.15 16:31 
It was so windy today that the POW/MIA flag got so twisted it almost disappeared into its own black hole - @ US Post Office - University
12.11.15 08:18 
2.5" in the rain gauge at 8am (55414) #mspwx #mnwx

2.5" in my rain gauge this morning
11.11.15 15:26 
Oh! It's raining! Probably not walking to the rock show, then.
