$%#$%@ing Snow
I've had it. Really freaking had it.

I am working in Sacramento this week and right now Madison is getting hit with snow. 6-ish inches.

I worked 5 games between 3/24 and 4/1.

Last week I lost Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday due to COLD WEATHER.

I have college DH scheduled Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday. Looks like THESE are now in jeopardy.

AAARGH!

Hey Rich,

You got Sac & La Tech?

I was in Reno yesterday and it was great, I go back this weekend and it might be less than that. It started raining today in Sac, the high school games will probably be canceled for today by noon and it is snowing up the hill right now.

GL this weekend.

Nope, working the real job here. I'm just a lowly D3 and high school guy in Wisconsin/Illinois. Don't have time to pursue much else right now.

And wife said it's likely going to be 10 inches in all. Blah.

Cool
I live in the NW suburbs of Chicago, and we typically get the weather Madison gets about two hours after they do, more or less. I just snapped this photo in my backyard.



Had a double header last Saturday cancelled due to cold. Worked a "chilly" game on Monday. Scheduled to work "singles" tomorrow & Friday, and a DH on Saturday. All doubtful at this point.

And that's what it takes for 10 inches to be expected...you out of town.

Be careful if its 12" - you then can call it a "foot"
